Hi Brian, The last step of the migration is "alias the app over to the HRD app".
I am wondering: whether oldapp.appspot.com will be pointed to newapp-hrd.appspot.com? whether old...@appspot.com will be pointed to newapp-...@appspot.com for xmpp? whether postmas...@oldapp.appspotmail.com will be pointed to postmas...@newapp-hrd.appspotmail.com? Do we have to go to Google Apps and manually switch domain names www.oldapp.com to newapp-hrd.appspot.com?
