Two questions:
* How is the race between updating the entities and updating the index
handled? Ie, what happens if the application server dies in between,
or a query happens at the same time?
* What question was asked around 58:00? Ryan says something is being
worked on (at a low priority) but not what.

Forgot to mention, this is in response to "Under the Covers of the
Google App Engine Datastore" (google groups hiccuped and lost my
original post, so this was thrown together a good bit more quickly)

glad you asked! we actually have an entire article on that:

http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/transaction_isolation.html

yeah, apologies for not repeating all of the questions. the question
was whether there's a way to get all of the kinds currently in your
datastore, like the admin console's data viewer does. we do actually
have a way to get your app's entire schema, ie all of the kinds *and*
all of the property names and types, but we haven't exposed it yet.
we'd like to, but it is a low priority, so we're not actively working
on it right now.

Thanks for the reply. What happens if a failure of whatever machine is
responsible for updating indexes occurs between milestone A and B,
though?

Marzia, the App Engine Fireside Chat (which was recorded, according to
an attendee) is missing.

You know, if they didn't answer it first time around, I doubt re-raising it is going to do much.

Apart from annoy those of us trying to keep up with email traffic, that is.

Fair enough. How do we find out?
