I don't think people are opposed to having a PyPI clone on GAE,
but moving the existing installation to GAE is something we would
have to discuss separately.

I for one would not welcome such a change, since we then completely
lose control over service availability.

Someone would also have to do some math to calculate the monthly
costs for the PSF:

    http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/quotas.html
    http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/billing.html
    http://code.google.com/appengine/business/

Please do consider helping on the already proposed PyPI
enhancements and changes.

Thanks,
