With the Task Queue API, applications can perform work outside of a user request but initiated by a user request. If an app needs to execute some background work, it may use the Task Queue API to organize that work into small, discrete units, called Tasks. The app then inserts these Tasks into one or more Queues. App Engine automatically detects new Tasks and executes them when system resources permit.

You create a java project only with the shared files (NOT a GAE project). You DON'T copy any libraries into the lib folder. You should add the required third-party components into your main project. Then you rightclick on the shared project's *source* folder, go to "Build Path -> Remove from build path" item in the context menu. You may, by the way, rename the source folder, so that it has a name different from the default source folder name. Next you rightclick on the main project's folder, go to "Build Path -> Link source".
