I'm not making a chat, but it works similar.The functionality I want is for x number of web/JS based clients to get a server push update without continuous polling. But this is really hard on App Engine, since it more or less depends on having sockets which are not closed after 30s :) So I'll redesign around another platform for now.
Thanks!
