This is a very complex issue, and there is no universal answer. I had to deal with it several times. For example, if a book is in the public domain in one country and still under the copyright in another, you may be liable in that country if you allow a user from that country to download it. In

Use versions for QA. You deploy a new version to GAE, but you don't make it a default version until the QA is done. Just remember to create a special user account (or whatever your app uses) for QA so they don't mess up other users' data. Also, if you make a new version the default one (after
