Hello Massimo, I'm a vital web2py user with a 3 systems in production. I've moved to python 3.7+ (currently 3.8) a long time ago. I'm using postgres as database, thus for me GAE would not be relevant.
But I'm really interested in any support and security updates of web2py. I would like to migrate to py4web. The only but big obstacle is time. As soon as I find the time I'm gonna move to py4web. Thanks a lot for web2py and your work!
