If Executors are not allowed then the gadget fetch / preloader
pipeline would be severely affected.
I also believe that ehcache and google collections may have some
threads behind the scenes...

I think there are some limitations on the Java GAE that might cause
problems, I saw reported somewhere that you couldn't create threads
which would prevent Guice being used as the ReferenceMap would stop
working.
There are also some other background threads required in the Gadget
server, (Caching perhapse?)

Hey Ram,
I remember that Python port quite well, however I don't seem to
remember the
source code ever being released under an open source license? If I
missed
that I would be very grateful if you could point us in it's
direction.
That being said, Java Shindig on GAE sounds like a fun experiment..
you'd
probably have to implement the GAE url fetcher, cache interfaces
and data
source; But I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work if your
willing to
do that.
The alternative to using GAE's bigtable is to RPC to your own back-
end,
creating a JSON-RPC like solution over http for the
people/appdata/activities/etc interfaces shouldn't be to hard.

Hmmm I was just wondering if it was possible to use the gae to
host the
gadget server for "FREE". And gae seems attractive enough since the
gadget
server will be the busy guy in an OpenSocial site.

Subject: Re: shindig and google app engine
That's a really cool idea and excellent example / sample
integration
to show how to implement the service layer.
Obviously the problem would be what generic social graph could you
integrate with to provide people and their relationships?

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has tried installing shindig on the
google
app
engine now that it supports java. Or whether this is possible in
the
first
place? Or does it entail some major work to it being able to be
run
on gae?
Cheers,
