Google App Engine 0.0.12 gems released

We just released the 0.0.12 google-appengine gem. We published the latest App Engine SDK, and did some cleanup on the tools to properly set ENV['RACK_ENV'] for Sinatra::Reloader. We also fixed some issues with threads hanging in the development console:
  • Both JRuby 1.4.1 and 1.5.0.dev are available
  • App Engine Tools updated to version 0.0.12
  • App Engine Rack updated to version 0.0.8
  • App Engine SDK updated to version 1.3.3.1
  • App Engine APIs updated to version 0.0.15
JRuby OpenSSL - Simply install our prerelease version of JRuby 1.5, and the latest jruby-openssl gem will work just fine. Folks that have been using an altered version of jruby-openssl 0.5.2 should update to jruby-openssl 0.7.
    sudo gem install google-appengine
    sudo gem install appengine-jruby-jars --pre


Contributions - Lots of great posts have been coming into the list recently. John Wang wrote up a nice blog post on generating JSON on Rails. Stefan Michaelis just wrote up a detailed gist on custom Authentication and Authorization.Local Meetup - Around 100 local Rubyists attended the App Engine Meetup last night. I presented summary slides form developers in Hawaii, Taiwan and Greece, and dissected a Rails application. Right after the meetup, Sarah Allen wrote up this fantastic blog post. I've also made my presentation available.Conferences - We're excited about a couple upcoming conferences. On Thursday I'll be at the Red Dirt RubyConf, I'll lead off the Servers/Hosting theme with a talk on JRuby on Google App Engine. A couple weeks later is Google I/O, we expect to hear some exciting announcements about App Engine. Those attending won't want to miss What's hot in Java for App Engine.
