To learn from good examples, what are the best open source Google App Engine applications out there?

I don't care if it is Java or Python based.

Please one app per answer. Feel free to add a link to the live app (if there is) and to the project page.

A couple of days after reading your answer I totally accidentally found myself reading the Rietveld source for guidance. So I had to come back and give you a +1 :)For the record, it is a good place to see how to make a straight-up Django app on AppEngine (i.e. no app-engine-patch). It is always updated as opposed to the docs (e.g. they are already using Django 1.1).

Also they have useful middleware to attach the current user to the request using the google user API.
