I use web2py for academic purposes. About a year ago I published on pythonanywhere a digital text book for german grammar.
The resource requires authentication and looks like a little LMS with roles, activities and grades. It was my first experience of this kind. And it was a success because PHP was to difficult for me, and only web2py could provide a clear way to handle a database. With Python I could easily solve my problems as e. g. text analysis and downloading reports. As for database so SQLite was completely enough.
My students like the design and the way everything is functioning. So I am very satisfied with the results and going to develop other interesting applications for my university.
I think web2py is very good for applied linguists and L2 teachers, who are not as experienced in computer science as programmers. So that was my humble opinion.
I am using web2py in production. Currently while in early production we are developing with SQLite because it is easy and it comes out of the box but later we will probably switch to MySQL. I don' think there are any plans to use Google App Engine.
We started to use Web2py 7 months ago. We already have one application in production in El Prado (National Museum in Spain). We developed a app to check and automate all the systems, to make servers statistics, access statistics, etc.
As Massimo points out above, the team at tenthrow uses web2py for tenthrow.com
We did most of our development work during 2009. Our stack uses cherokee, web2py, postgresql, and amazon s3. We had done many python web implementations prior to this on a variety of frameworks and backends. To say that we simply could not have done tenthrow so quickly and easily without web2py is an understatement. It's the best kept secret in web development.

I am using web2py with gae and google datastore in production of custom application , it is a very good framework.

Actually it's using MySQL, but it could switch to postgresql at a moments notice as web2py is so diverse :)
