I've been using GAE for 6 years now and while the pace of supporting/fixing stuff has always been slow, it has indeed been on a steady decline ever since Compute Engine got announced. GAE for me is a nice lesson to not rely on closed source solutions, where I can't go and fix mission critical stuff myself. I've got confirmed bug reports over 4 years old that still aren't fixed [1], and I got serious deadlock bugs on Windows over a year old, that got applied low priority with the recommendation to use another OS. [2] In general I really like GAE, but the complete lack of support & dedication from Google and the shifting of resoures to other products makes me sad.
