Great! Thanks for your teams work so far.
Also I did find that someone wrote a ndb-like wrapper around the cloud datastore API.
https://github.com/Bogdanp/anom-py
I haven't tried it out yet.
Although i think any reasonable path to upgrading to 3.7 might need atleast some wrapper like that around the datastore(even if it's not 100% compatible), otherwise forcing people relying on that to re-write the entire data layer. At this point i might just start re-writing the app, to move to something with less lock-in like Mongodb. But i'd love to hear what other people's plans are for this.
