Oleg,

I don't know if this is a good answer, but here goes:

I'm pretty sure that you can't use an A record with Google App Engine
(GAE). That means you can't point your domain (e.g. spobby.com) to a
specific IP address. So there's no way to point spobby.com directly to
your GAE app except by _domain forwarding_ and/or _domain masking_,
which are services your Domain Registrar (e.g. Go Daddy) will provide
you with.

Therefore, you *must* use a subdomain to point to your GAE app, and
that requires you to set a CNAME record, which just points one
subdomain URL to another different URL. That's why GAE is telling you
to use spobby.spobby.com. The extra "spobby" is a subdomain.

Hopefully that helps...
