Targeting GAE and standalone apps

[Johann Höchtl]

Congrats for GAE Beta 1!

Under
https://github.com/the42/cartconvert/tree/master/cartconvserv

I have assembeld a small project which uses features of the new go tool,
http://tip.golang.org/pkg/go/build/#Context.ScanDir
specifically build constraints to differ between appengine or stand alone applications. Watch out for

// +build

in main.go, init.go and config.go

I think the file layout I came up with quite sane. Maybe some good practice to follow for future developers.

BTW. I have NOT yet tested on GAE SDK ... if the go tool holds what promised, it should work ...

The Go App Engine tools don't support the +build annotations yet, but
they will eventually. For now, you can use the skip_files or
nobuild_files directives in your app.yaml to control what gets
uploaded/built for App Engine deployment.
