Progress

The incident described here happened to our project too:
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=4384
So there seems to be 2 ways to go and both will work. If you want to follow the project we just updated and refreshed instanced complying towards django 1.2 and google app engine 1.5.1. The way I get a fresh copy of the project is using mercurial like this

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ cd /media/Lexar/
ubuntu@ubuntu:/media/Lexar$ hg clone https://niklasro@montao.googlecode.com/hg/ montao

This way I can keep development on a USB stick. There is a rather new feature we can buy that's called "Always On" - do you know what it does and if it's worth it? This week I posted a question on software here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6545853/class-methods-vs-instance-methodsThere was some technical problem that now seems resolved around updating to django 1.2 with google app engine as we sandby for more challenges having good growth this year compared to last year, growth that is good in relative terms that can affect a project valuation. Naturally we could use a "makeover" escpecially for the Brazilian parts of the app where usage dimished. What's very good with the newer deployments is that large object get saved to the app engine in an overseeable way (not too complicated code like we had with the Java deployment that had too many special cases and too low abstraction level). There is an option called Always on that we can discuss whether we want or need:
Always On $0.30 per day ($9.00 per month) Learn more

Ideas and challenges - just let us know! One resource to look at is montao.googlecode.com where we link to other projects.
