Jacob, My work is very much in progress, and will be documented (with code samples) fairly regularly over the coming weeks and months. The blog itself is the guinea pig - running Django 1.2.1 on GAE. Please visit http://www.tiemonster.info/ for more information. After reading Waldemar's comments below, my next step will be to revisit django- nonrel and see the progress made since the last time I visited.
Waldemar, I had no idea a working ORM had already been produced. I'll be looking at and reviewing your work as soon as possible. I'll provide as much feedback as I can which I hope can aid you in your work. As far as gaps in the ORM are concerned, the first issue I ran into is the lack of textual searching. I've found nothing similar to the __contains modifiers in the Django ORM. This makes it especially difficult to do full-site searching - something which I am implementing at the moment by iterating through the entire set of posts and doing the textual searching in python. This is obviously not an ideal solution. This is what I meant by "python-only solution". I've also run into issues with aggregation (SUM, MIN, MAX, etc), which I don't see a solution for in the GAE ORM. I am very excited that the code has been released, and that you've had luck with several third-party applications. Like I said, I'll definitely be checking that out as soon as possible. Last I checked, you were just looking into it (perhaps a while ago now).
