Yes. I am using GAE, thanks. I tried

mylist = list(Rep().all().fetch(10))

and tried to render it with Mako template

% for i in mylist:
${i}
% endfor

I still get the output:

len(mylist): 2
<__main__.Rep object at 0x03AE6C50>
<__main__.Rep object at 0x03AE6270>

As far as I understand there are two items in mylist and they are Rep
objects. But previously I wrote the list L to datastore:

L = []
s = self.request.get('sentence')
L.append(s)

L = L[0].split('\r\n')

Rep().replist = L
Rep().put()
mylist = list(Rep().all().fetch(10))

so I don't understand why I fetch a list and I get an object. Thanks
for your help.
