Research Django on Google App Engine #10

Closed pengale closed 14 years ago

pengale commented 14 years ago

We may have free hosting through Google's app engine.

One caveat: Django needs to be taught how to communicate with the app engine's file (rather than database) driven back end.

We need somebody to research the changes that need to be made. (This would also involve porting the script that builds the categories to an app engine friendly format -- sorry 'bout that, Josh.)

In order to prevent having to re-architect things and because most of the people working on this right now are not (I assume) App Engine experts, I'd be happy to donate a large Rackspace or EC2 instance to host things for the foreseeable future.
