My 2c:

I think that suggesting people cross post to stackoverflow is useful, I think 
telling them they've posted in the wrong place kills discussion around problems 
and questions. There are a lot of surface questions for appengine that can have 
deep answers, and stack overflow actively restricts the kinds of information 
that can be shared and disallows any discussion or conjecture.

I also personally don't like some questions being posted outside of 
stackoverflow in the ops section of stack exchange - that's no good to me. 
Running on a PaaS isn't about ops - that's you're job, not ours. I think 
everything should be on stack overflow to reduce search surface area. Mostly 
this is because the only solution is 'program around it' anyway.

All in all, the continued support of Google in this forum gives it a totally 
different feeling now - it feels like Google are invested in GAE as a continued 
piece of the cloud platform, so it's been a very positive change. It would be 
great to see product managers and engineers leading discussion in here too, 
rather than just support helping people with problems.
