Hi Nick, Thank you vey much for checking on this. I assume not providing the socket communication in app engine api is the concern of security. Is google going to provide this service in the near future plz?
Regarding your solution, I need to set up proxy server as an intermediary node to receive the data and relay it again using htttp. Do u have any suggestions on setup of this proxy and google apis for data streaming over http plz? Your help is really appreciated!
