I'm writing a Python application, that I want to later migrate to GAE. The new "Task Queues" API fulfills a requirement of my app, and I want to simulate it locally until I have the time to migrate the whole thing to GAE.

Does anyone know of a compatible module I can run locally?

+1  A: 

Given the explicitly experimental nature of the thing, there's certainly nothing compatible in existence at this time. And obviously even if there were, Google pretty much says "we're going to change the API!" in their warning about it, so anything compatible now would not be compatible when the time comes to migrate.

Since my original question, I've found two projects that aim to release the vendor-lock-in of GAE:

  1. AppScale - http://code.google.com/p/appscale/
  2. TyphoonAE - http://code.google.com/p/typhoonae/

There is also the GAE Testbed for easier testing: http://code.google.com/p/gae-testbed/
