Changed the property that holds the minimum age required for Students to participate in a GHOP based program. Added a new property student_min_age_as_of to hold the DateTime from when the minimum age should be reached. Changed student_min_age property to now store the student minimum age as an integer. This all feel more user friendly then letting the program admin calculate the required DateTime. Storing the two properties is then still needed in this case since information might be lost otherwise when the program admin brings up the edit view. Reviewed by: Lennard de Rijk

An interactive, stateful AJAX shell that runs Python code on the server.

Part of http://code.google.com/p/google-app-engine-samples/.

May be run as a standalone app or in an existing app as an admin-only handler.
Can be used for system administration tasks, as an interactive way to try out
APIs, or as a debugging aid during development.

The logging, os, sys, db, and users modules are imported automatically.

Interpreter state is stored in the datastore so that variables, function
definitions, and other values in the global and local namespaces can be used
across commands.

To use the shell in your app, copy shell.py, static/*, and templates/* into
your app's source directory. Then, copy the URL handlers from app.yaml into
your app.yaml.
