Hi Greg, Thanks for the response. Just to be clear, the syntax to defer a task to a backend is the following? deferred.defer(deferred_fn_name, param1, param2, _target='http:// backend-name.app-id.appspot.com')
Also, you mentioned that we should be sure that the backend has the same classes and configurations as the frontend? As far as I have read, the frontend and backend are using the same code base, so is this implied already, or is there something extra I am missing?
