Have something to ask the App Engine team? Spending time scratching your head on a problem and want to ask someone who spends his or her days and nights working with App Engine? Spend all of your time on IRC anyway?

Starting this week, the App Engine developer relations team will be experimenting with holding bi-monthly 1 hour developer chat sessions on the #appengine IRC channel on irc.freenode.net. Look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_IRC_clients for a helpful list of IRC clients. We welcome all App Engine questions, and will try to answer as many as we can get through in the hour. We'll be posting the complete chat sessions on the group for those not able to make the scheduled chat times.

The first chat session will be this Wednesday at 9AM PDT. In general, we are planning on holding the sessions the first and third Wednesday of the month, alternating between day and evening. We're test-driving this program, so the days and times may change.

Here are the currently scheduled dates and times:

* Wednesday, October 20, 9am-10am PDT
* Wednesday, November 5, 7pm-8pm PST
* Wednesday, November 19, 9am-10am PST
* Wednesday, December 3, 7pm-8pm PST
* Wednesday, December 17, 9am-10am PST

We look forward to chatting with you!

This is great. Thank you for reaching out to us developers. I plan
on attending these.

Regarding communicating with the App Engine team...what is an
appropriate way to contact someone about quotas? Specifically, my
team is building a rich internet app using Adobe Flex, and even using
modules we have swf files that are larger than 1mb. Is it possible
to request a small tweak to our file size limit?

Thank you!

i think you've got the date wrong for this wednesday - it should be
the 22nd, not the 20th.

Can someone please post a transcript somewhere for those of us who
won't be able to attend 'live'?

Hi,

My bad! I've updated the blog, but the correct date for this Wednesday
is the 22nd.

Concerning the quota requests, in general, you can apply for an
increase in your quota by using our request page:
http://code.google.com/support/bin/request.py?contact_type=AppEngineContact

However, currently we are not able to lift the 1MB file size quota.
We are currently working on solutions that would allow users to host
larger files, and it's something we are interested in supporting in
the future.

Lastly, we plan to post chat transcripts on the group.
