     7  * Introduction
     8  
     9  Today we released version 1.5.5 the Go App Engine SDK. You can download it from the [[http://code.google.com/appengine/downloads.html][App Engine downloads page]].
    10  
    11  This release includes changes and improvements to the App Engine APIs and brings the supporting Go tool chain to [[http://golang.org/doc/devel/release.html#r60][release.r60.2]] (the current stable release). Also included in this release are the [[http://golang.org/cmd/godoc/][godoc]], [[http://golang.org/cmd/gofmt/][gofmt]], and [[http://golang.org/cmd/gofix/][gofix]] tools from the Go tool chain. They can be found in the root directory of the SDK.
    12  
    13  Some changes made in this release are backwards-incompatible, so we have incremented the SDK `api_version` to 3. Existing apps will require code changes when migrating to `api_version` 3.
    14  
    15  The gofix tool that ships with the SDK has been customized with App Engine-specific modules. It can be used to automatically update Go apps to work with the latest appengine packages and the updated Go standard library. To update your apps, run:
    16  
    17  	    /path/to/sdk/gofix /path/to/your/app
    18  
    19  The SDK now includes the appengine package source code, so you can use the local godoc to read App Engine API documentation:
    20  
    21  	    /path/to/sdk/godoc appengine/datastore Get
    22  
    23  *Important*note:* We have deprecated `api_version` 2. Go apps that use `api_version` 2 will stop working after 16 December 2011. Please update your apps to use api_version 3 before then.
