@Adrian of course you can and each task on the task queue is not limited to 30 seconds but 10 minutes. I think that Channel API would help in this case: 1. User clicks on the Id question he/she wants 2. The process is started in the background using the taskqueue 3. User is asynchronously notified by the channel API that the process is complete. The first thing to check is that all the Python libraries used by Greg could be adopted on GAE considering that GAE does not allow write to file-system for example.
@Adrian I don't think Google App Engine could generate this on-the-fly, in 30 seconds you have plenty of things to do like fetching the data from SE, fetching the images, formatting the data to mobi etc.etc. .
thanks to have clarified this; I would suggest to modify the thumbnail of the world's worst stackoverflow clone here too because it is pointed as an example of the new templating style here and its thumbnail is definitely a logo.
sorry for the dumb question..one thing that I don't get is why /sites route and other routes in the documentation have This method is new to version 1.1 description. Is it new or just updated?
good job, I really like the pimped documentation. One question: I have noticed that you have introduced the markdown_extensions parameter on /sites route, are you going to mark as status_completed that feature request? Are there any other features added that were marked as status_planned and now are status_completed?
