back burner at this moment. Even though we could accommodate GAE's
thread restriction it turns out that GAE sandbox restrictions involve
several apis that we use (JAXB, JMX, JNDI among others) and retrofitting
Infinispan into this tight sandbox would be a headache. There is a
strong comunity push to unrestrict these API and it seems pressures from
community would eventually be successful.
+1.
I don't think GAE will be as successful as for example EC2 if they only
support a subset of the JDK libraries. And +1 to build up pressure on
them to support the full JDK libs.
Currently, it seems Google only wants to host apps, not middleware (they
do that themselves)...
