It looks like a lot of App Engine functionality is available. What's missing?

Indeed, it's almost on par with the the other runtimes. Remember that the Google thanksgiving doodle was written in Go and ran on standard App Engine infrastructure.
I think GO is still experimental in app engine and doesn't support some services like OAuth, Google Cloud Storage, and XMPP. Also, "experimental" scares me for production use.
I'm writing an AppEngine app in Go right now. It uses the same datastore as Python and Java, as well as OAuth and JavaScript Channels. Iterating with the development server is a pleasure, since it compiles everything in the background as you work.
Have you tried releasing it for production use? I would love to hear how it is working out for you. Are there any frameworks?
