What sort of possibilities? I'm running some sites on Google's AppEngine, and recently found out that it is blocked due to the GFW. I don't see any signs of that changing, especially with this new policy.

Can anyone confirm that AppEngine does not work right now in mainland China? I've been thinking about moving to China for a while now and this would be yet another reason to stall on that decision. I know I can VPN out for Twitter / FB / Google, but that just seems such a hassle for an internet professional.

AppEngine is not blocked from here... What is bloked in China is google group and some parts of google code (sigh)...
For accessing any website, I just use a ssh tunnel to a vps in the US and have almost no loss of speed or latency when reaching US websites... So it's really not a bother...
If you have any questions on living in China, you can get in touch with me, my email is in my profile...
