Using couchdbkit (a third-party library) in the Google App Engine

I find it hard to get couchdbkit to function properly in the Google App Engine. I either do not import my libraries correctly, or I run the GAE Python Sandbox rules . Does anyone know if restkit needs to be enabled when using couchdbkit in GAE (which is where some problems arise)?

Here is my configuration:

app.yaml
zapdome.py
couchdbkit /
restkit /

I split zapdome.py only into the basics (connect to my CouchDB database server):

#! /usr/bin/env python

import urllib, httplib, datetime
from couchdbkit.schema.base import *
from couchdbkit.schema.properties import *
from couchdbkit.client import Server

USERNAME = ''
PASSWORD = ''

class QuoteEntry(Document):
    name = StringProperty()
    symbol = StringProperty()
    price = StringProperty()
server = Server('https://' + USERNAME + ':' + PASSWORD + '@' + USERNAME + '.cloudant.com/')

These are the errors that I log:

Since it is choking on httplib.FakeSocket and restkit.Resource, I'm starting to think that I'm going beyond what GAE allows. Anyone have any thoughts? Thank.
