Blog on Google App Engine

Hi i'm trying to host my blog on Google App Engine (Google quality & free ...) i looked everywhere for a solution.

I love jekyll project but since it's developed with ruby i can't host it on appengine.

I found hyde project ( which kind of python implemented version of jekyll) i'm thinking to use it on appengine, Are there anyone who's already using it on google appengine ?

The most possible solution is "microlog", it's a Wordpress like python implementation on GAE. jekyll is not very suitable for GAE applications, because it's workflow is Write-Generate Static Files-Publish. On GAE you cannot access the filesystem, so it's not very easy to have such a framework.

PS: if you like, you can generate static pages and store them in the database, but I cannot see the point of doing this than just store data in db and render them on the fly.
