I'm using Django with google app engine. I'm using the google furnished django app engine helper project.

I'm attempting to create a Django modelformset like this:

#MyModel inherits from BaseModel    
MyFormSet = modelformset_factory(models.MyModel)

However, it's failing with this error:

'ModelOptions' object has no attribute 'fields'

Apparently modelformset_factory() is expecting MyModel to implement a 'fields' accessor.

Anybody successfully used a modelformset with GAE datastore? Or is this a fundamental incompatibility between Django and GAE?
