It's not new as far as I know - ndb and db have traditionally be the way to access datastore in App Engine, so it's somewhat implied. I'll see if I can't make the docs a bit more clear there. > So - I’ll call your bluff. Tell me how to submit a patch for the issue I pointed to and I’ll happily do so. You make some excellent points. I will move webapp2 to github, take ownership of it, and I'll be happy to review and merge your patch as well as publish a new version of webapp2 to PyPI. This process takes some time, so I will update this list once that is done.
