Hi all,
Due to scheduled maintenance, the datastore will be in read-only mode
for approximately 10 minutes starting at 2:30pm PDT on Friday, 6/6.
During this period all datastore writes and transactions will throw
an
exception. If you'd like to modify your app to catch this
exception,
here are some specifics:

exception
google.appengine.runtime.apiproxy_errors.CapabilityDisabledError

will be thrown by db.Model.put(), db.Model.delete(), and
db.run_in_transaction(). You can use python's try syntax to fail
gracefully on writes like this:

from google.appengine.ext import db
from google.appengine.runtime.apiproxy_errors import
CapabilityDisabledError

myModel = db.Model()
try:
myModel.put()
except CapabilityDisabledError:
# fail gracefully here
pass

We have rescheduled this maintenance to Monday at 2:30PM PDT. I'll
update the group when it is complete.
