Helma 1.6.2 was released yesterday; Chris Zumbrunn has a great round-up of changes & fixes. The big ones: JavaScript 1.7 enabled out of the box, JSAdapter support.

It also looks as if there will be a Helma meeting sometime in spring. Fantastic!Two more bits about Google App Engine:

Hannes Wallnöfer dives in and mostly likes what he sees: "Das Datastore API ist ein Highlight und eine feine Inspirationsquelle für zukünftige Helmas to come."

Ryan Barrett's launch announcement; he worked on the App Engine datastore. (Hilarious, if only for me: Can you tell where the speech bubble icon on Ryan's site came from, and by which way?)

AE for structured data (the datastore does indeed look much, much cooler than Amazon SimpleDB; and there's no reason not to RESTify it, right?) & frontends (if you're comfortable turning over that much behavioural data to Google), Amazon S3 for blobs (assets & archival), Amazon EC2 for raw cycles & in-memory databases (along with a small army of cheap leased servers). InfiniBase, InfiniSpace, InfiniCycles: Every puzzle has an answer.

To me, "where from" is as obvious as "by which way" is not. Curious -- iste Frechigkeit. Was soll?

I would like to know when you're in Vienna next time. Let me know when and if you have time.

Cheers!

ah, those icons bring back fond memories. snipsnap is dead, long live snipsnap!

mr. f, ryan's comment should make the "by which way" clear too ;-) - the snipsnap folks had acquired (probably by offering beer futures) an exclusive license to the lcom icon set, drawn by yours truly in pixia, a funky little japanese pixel editor, back at the dawn of time. I think 2 of the icons actually got used. wrt/ vienna, it'd be a great pleasure! can you send me an email with your current phone number so I can pre-announce appropriately?

ryan, I had no idea you were such a prolific snipsnap user/contributor! as I recently found out, snipsnap does indeed live on, in the form of an "official" fork.

gae actually might be a great platform for a reincarnation of [create Vanilla.py], the very original vanilloid ...
