I do not know Plone well enough to make a comparison so I am not 100% sure what the items means. Let me try to address them:
5. customer subdomains (customer1.example.com, customer2.example.com) yes. Via routes. 2. versioning of content objects Yes. http://www.web2pyslices.com/main/slices/take_slice/35 4. full-text search of all content objects yes, except for blobs. Full text search requires a relational database and does not work on GAE 3. indexing and searching of binary formats (word, pdf, excel etc...) I am not sure what this means. If you could point us some description of what Plone does in this respect I will take a look. 1. state-based workflow I am not completely sure. In web2py you can save a state in the session and force a workflow based on that but there is no special API. If you point us to the Plone description or show us an example we can tel you how to do it in web2py.
