They have the "moderate first post from new user" feature turned on. A long
time ago it seemed to be the only way to stop spammers on Google Groups. I
don't know if that is still the case; I haven't tried turning it off in
years. Anyone know?

There is the slight problem of moderation. Only Googlers can approve new
posters, and because they not active here, it can take days for new posts
to show up. (and they arrive all at once :)

I've been lurking on this mailing list for quite a while, and
suspected the move to SO was a bad idea; answers are excellent, but
you can't have a community on SO. You need forums.

The best thing I've found elsewhere is the official cloud platform
community on G+:

https://plus.google.com/communities/105461889719084929003

Pretty low volume, but looks ok.

I find that listening to the chit-chat of form discussions is a great
way to discover how other people use tools and helps me learn, and the
lack of such a forum since the advent of SO as the official channel has
made App Engine that much less attractive as a result.

Ultimately, Google's changes in this area have convinced me that I am
not the intended audience for App Engine. As a solo developer, my needs
have been much better served since I switched to platforms where the
vendors see the value in this sort of community.
