I read an interestign article a few weeks ago about the culture at
Google...

An interesting quote from the article...
>>
At Google I am told developers bid for what they want to do with their
time. If there’s a big job to be done people commit to parts of it.
And the parts nobody commits to do? They don’t get done. Really. So
when we wonder exactly how a JotSpot, which I really liked, turns into
a Google Sites, which I really don’t like, that morphology apparently
comes from people changing what they want to change.

I have no idea how true it is but it jives with what I see going on
with the Google App Engine.
Developers are adding new fun stuff like Task Queues and ignoring not-
so-fun-stuff like fixing asynchronous URL fetch...

Anyway, I'm convinced that expecting Google to support the Google App
Engine like it was a real business is not reasonable cause Google is
just not into that.
I'm keeping my eye on the Google App Engine but I'm developing for
AWS.
