I, for one, am sick and tired of Sun's domineering, suffocating stranglehold on what is and isn't Java. GAE is a breath of fresh air.
JavaME and JavaEE also impose a variety of limitations on Java. What's the difference between those and GAE? The difference is that Sun got a committee of big company representatives with their own vested interests in a closed room and argued about how "the official specs" should work for years... and ultimately produced a bunch of crap that is barely useful to anyone. Just *try* out Websphere sometime, I dare you. For the first time ever, someone has produced a shared application service model for Java that's even easier than PHP. This could never have come out of the JCP. If this is "destroying java", then GOOD RIDDANCE!
