I would have to imagine, that Google intends to have a reliable service here and that the release of 1.2.6 has been problematic. I would like to push for a review of this release once it is finished. There have been many problems caused to applications, that as you say is completely unexpected and that causes significant concern.
One possible solution is to allow applications to opt-in to a staging version: http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=1078. A more generic version of this solution is for google to keep multiple versions of GAE in production, rather than upgrading everyone, allow individuals to 'opt-in' to a specific version of app-engine. This would then feel more like you were running on your own server with some control over the software installed, and you could test out the upgrade, and it's effects on YOUR application before it occurs. j On Oct 14, 5:16 am, johnP <j...@thinkwave.com> wrote: > Rodrigo, > > Thanks for the response - I have replaced the module with one that > builds the tables dynamically - > > But as we were discussing internally this morning: are we dealing with > a Tactical or a Strategic issue, here.
