[OpenID] Google App Engine & python-openid

[Martin Paljak]

I don't mean google apps as their application package for domains. I'm  
talking about generic python/wsgi software that could play with all  
the features of OpenID like auth, sreg and ax if it was hosted in  
Google App Engine - http://appengine.google.com/
