Re: [appengine-java] Reminder: Google App Engine community support is moving to Stack Overflow
I find that you're either one of those people who lives on StackOverflow or you're one of those people who only visits when they're searching for something specific. I'm the later myself; I can't "follow" SO the way I follow an email list. Truth be told, I have the google-appengine list and the google-appengine-java list both dumped to a common label in gmail, so combining the mailing lists really makes no difference to me. Actually it improves the situation, since most discussions really end up being GAE-general. But yeah, SO is tough to "follow". I'm not sure it's really all that useful to try.

Here's what worked. [google-app-engine] +java then sort by newest Here's what didn't work [google-app-engine] java because the site changed it to [google-app-engine] [java] BUT many posts are not tagged as java though they contained java in the post which is what I was looking for but not showing up Thanks for your help.

Re: [appengine-java] Reminder: Google App Engine community support is moving to Stack Overflow
Shawn, You might try searching on the tags specifically. E.g. try: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/google-app-engine+java This should bring up a list sorted by (by default) newest first, though you can change the sort via the tabs at the top of the page. When you're searching, you can specify a tag by putting it in square brackets. E.g. if you search for: [google-app-engine] [java] spring this will retrieve questions tagged with [google-app-engine] and [java], and containing 'spring'.

Re: [appengine-java] Reminder: Google App Engine community support is moving to Stack Overflow
> Search for "google-app-engine java". I still don't get it. searching pulls up results that are seemingly unordered by time using a Stack Overflow filter (to notify by email or display current results) doesn't find "java" related posts. YUCK. It'd be nice to be able to just follow the java version especially when a new release come out with it's inevitable problems. It helps me pin down what might be wrong. Also, do we need to have to follow two lists ... Maybe I'll get used to it. I hate it for now. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine for Java" group.

[appengine-java] Reminder: Google App Engine community support is moving to Stack Overflow
Hi App Engine Developers, As we announced last month on this thread: http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine/browse_thread/thread/67a5cdffae1c03bc/, we are migrating to Stack Overflow (http://stackoverflow.com) as the official channel for answering Java and Python development questions about Google App Engine. The Python and Java App Engine groups will be placed into read-only mode tomorrow (6th March). The google-appengine group (< http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine>) will remain open for general discussions and announcements that are better suited for the groups format. For those who missed this previous thread, it's probably useful to skim through it for a more detailed discussion about why we believe this transition to Stack Overflow for development questions will be an improvement for App Engine developers. >From the thread, here is Ikai's original announcement: http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine/msg/5d70b842714efd25 and here is a bit more amplification from Greg D'Alesandre, an App Engine Senior Product Manager: http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine/msg/cf9183d4af1c36e6 If you are new to Stack Overflow, here are a few useful links: Questions tagged with 'google-app-engine': http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/google-app-engine Some of the top users (i.e., question-answerers) for the SO app engine tag: http://stackoverflow.com/tags/google-app-engine/topusers and a bit more info on some of them: http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine/msg/198422648752b9b6 You can subscribe to Stack Overflow tags via email: http://blog.stackoverflow.com/2010/12/subscribe-to-tags-via-emai/ and grab rss feeds for tags, e.g.: http://stackoverflow.com/feeds/tag?tagnames=google-app-engine&sort=newest And then there is Andrin's great app for pulling SO feeds into mailing lists, to let you get new questions and answers in your mail client. See: http://stack-over-mail.appspot.com and in particular, subscribe to http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine-stackoverflow ( google-appengine-stackoverf...@googlegroups.com) [You can add new tags as well]. Here is a Chrome extension for tracking new questions on a Stack Overflow tag: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/bnnkhapbhkejookmhgpgaikfdoegkmdp And last but not least, from Bart: > If you are on IRC freenode i just made a channel where my bot spams the RSS > feed of stackoverflow.
