"This is a preview release of Google App Engine"

Google App Engine "BETA"  the beta wasn't on there for no good reason.  Roll
with the punches understand there will be hick-ups.  Weren't you around for
the Microsoft days to learn Software Development 101?  Don't bet the farm on
anything that isn't labeled "For Enterprise" and has a version number less
than 3.1. Let others fail miserably to get the bugs out.

Well Google is the same beasty, accept the old "wait for the first service
pack" doesn't work because when they upgrade, you go with them like it or
not.

Subject: [google-appengine] Re: HR Vs. Master-Slave Comparison. Is it worth
extra cost?

I'm kind of disappointed with Google's recent attitude change. When
master/slave was all there was, it was deemed 'production worthy'. Now
suddenly it's " If you are running a production service, you should not use
Master/Slave datastore. Ever."

Given that the HR datastore has some pretty big problems from a user
perspective (costs 3 times more, only supports Eventual consistency), it's
not really feasable to use for production code in *every* instance. So I'm
very disappointed to hear these kinds of comments coming from Google. You
shouldn't make something, then complain when people use it. If you don't
want people using Master/Slave, maybe you should remove it.

To berate customers for preferring an option you *provide* is just mind
blowing.
