I'm sorry but I think I have to back up Mos here. I'm as excited about the new-shiny as anyone else, but no amount of new-shiny makes up for the frayed nerves of annoyed users, instance-spawning chaos, requests that never even reach my app, silence from google, a completely oblivious status page, and so on. Please make the platform rock-solid first, and then by all means, bring on the new-shiny.
