Dear all,
Thanks a lot for your indulgence.
On our side, I don't yet feel empowered to take a decision and would wait
till mid August, by when I hope to complete some experimentation with
Zope2, Grok, Flask and GAE.
For a small project on our hands, we plan to use GAE, largely because there
is someone available locally to do hand holding... and probably also
because the customer is fine with anything Google. But that is only an ad
hoc decision.
I will keep your advice nuggets in mind as I go forward and will keep
reporting.

Thanks again.
