Alec, I was thinking of trying out Red Hat Openshift and came across your repository. While I have not tried your instructions yet, and they will most probably work, unfortunately, the things that you modified in the web2py folder is not clear from those instructions. If it is not too complicated, can you please post some instructions on how to modify a fresh web2py (install from source) folder. For example, things such as location of .yml file, does the name of setup.py need to be changed (as is required for dotcloud hosting).
That would be really helpful. Thanks.
