official informations website

[philippe pithon]

hi,

what the official appengine website for the latest information: new version, new apis, etc ...

- Google forum?

- Stack Overflow forum? (why there are 2 forums ???)

- Others?

Bonjour Philippe!

Okay, so basically, Here is a breakdown of the information and how we spread it :

Latest version and the APIs related should be seen in our public site, here, and follow our SDK releases here. 

Google Groups should be used to ask open-ended questions, kinda like "discussions" about the best practices and ideas for the platform.

Stack Overflow should be used for specific programming questions about the platform, whereas Serverfault should be used for Google Compute Engine questions

There is also the Issue Tracker you can use to notify us (or look up) Defect Reports and Feature Requests about the platform.

Is there anything else I can help with? :).

Cheers

This would make an excellent page on the GAE docs, especially if kept up to date.

Also, there's a mailing list for production/live issues which is essential for anyone deploying apps.

Nick, great suggestion. It turns out there is such a page! It is this one: https://support.google.com/cloud/answer/3466163

You'll also find it linked from the main Cloud Support page at https://cloud.google.com/support/

I'm working on a welcome message which incorporates this information as well. I've probably missed some places in the GAE docs, but we are trying to be much more clear about this.

Regards,

Jesse
