Hi, First to further what Jon was saying, the roadmap has to do with our feature development plans, and not with issue fixes. In addition to building new features, the team will also continue fixing issues with the system. These include those issues listed in the tracker, as well as an overall dedication to improving system performance.
To address the comments regarding the documentation, improvements to the documentation are outside of the scope of this roadmap, but we definitely are committed to improving that as well. I'd also like this opportunity to solicit user contributed articles for our articles section: http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/ If you think you have a good idea for an article, and are willing to license it under the Creative Commons license, please contact me and I can work with you to get it published. Lastly, concerning Bill's comment, I'm not entirely sure what you have in mind when you ask if they will be running on the same 'VM', immediate plans for new language support would most likely follow the same general theme as python support. Meaning, you would upload your application to App Engine, and the system manages all of serving infrastructure. -Marzia On Fri, Oct 24, 2008 at 7:25 AM, Nash <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > This is great!
