Hello ikai, Thanks and congrats for the great release.
Will there be an option for source code download control in app.yaml. according to the mail thread in pre-release of 1.3.8 we thought this will be implemented, and that would be very helpful. the feature announced now will be a very good add-on but, by default if the config is to be on app.yaml. Will there be any option for the creator of the app to get any versions source code. We have some use cases relying on this option. so please make a reply about this, accordingly we can streamline the development process at our team, Thanks On Fri, Nov 19, 2010 at 3:57 AM, Ikai Lan (Google) <ikai.l+gro...@google.com<ikai.l%2bgro...@google.com> > wrote: > Hey everyone, > > I just wanted to let everyone know that prerelease SDK 1.4.0 is out!
