not exactly, you just need to use a subdomain, so you have xxx.com redirect to www.xxx.com (or any other subdomain eg xxx.com to yyy.xxx.com) its mainly because appengine is a distributed product and so uses cnames and dns to apply the geographic distrubution. but cnames are not well supported on naked domains. about the only way to support naked domains is a reverse proxy - which aside from the technical issues (which is slated as the reason its no longer supported) - its really bad from a practical pov - it basically undermines the distribution to make everything go though a central proxy. ie is really slow (and there really isnt much that can be done about it) notice even google.com redirects to www.google.com > > Have I got this wrong ?
