The Google App Engine JumpBox gives you a drop in place system for doing Google App Engine development that’s contained in an isolated environment within a virtual machine.

It runs exactly the same on GNU/Linux, Mac and other OS’s and gives you a development environment that lets you take advantage of great virtualization features like snapshots. It will run from a single download on Parallels Desktop, VMWare, Virtual Iron, Xen Open Source in fully virtualized mode and others.

Jump Box Open is a subscription that grants you one license for every JumpBox in the Open Source Collection for a period of one year. From Content Management Systems (CMS) to Wikis, CRM to Ticket Tracking, there are already JumpBoxes available for many of the most popular Open Source applications.

There are 20 JumpBoxes currently available, with 50 additional expected by the end of 2008.
