Cool! Google App Engine is extending their service beyond the current
Python support to include Java and all the JVM languages like Jython,
JRuby, Groovy and so on.
http://googleappengine.blogspot.com/2009/04/seriously-this-time-new-language-on-app.htmlWe knew that Google uses Java for a lot of their services, and GWT
(Google Web Toolkit) even provides Java-to-Javascript translation,
letting the programmer use a single language for both client (browser)
and server. But we were also frustrated that this was not available
on GAE, and were uncertain just where Google was heading.
Now its a bit clearer.
