Just use appenginepatch. Among other things it adds session support to
Django:

Though, I doubt that App Engine is well-suited for a chat application
because you have to poll the server for updates which is slow and you
might hit quota limits very quickly. I'd recommend that you build a
chat server in Erlang on top of EC2, instead, but if this is just a
fun app then App Engine should be fine.
