people working on appengine really want java? Isn't write webapps in java unproductive? I would figure developers would rather have ruby,php instead.

people working on appengine really want java?
After more than 8 years of coding in Java, I had to pick up Python (and Django) so as to start using GAE for my startup.
Now, looking at those sample code in Java (and JSP) and the related XML configurations for GAE, I don't think I want to go back to Java - unless I am paid to do so, say for services.

#13Hmm I'd like to see JRuby running on app engine. Who else would?
In that case, you will want to read:

which includes:
* Dynamic languages on Google App Engine - an overview * JRuby on Rails on Google App Engine * Java on Google App Engine

Believe it. [update] Alright no one likes TinyURL. I get it. Here's a more informative tutorial about running Clojure on GAE. http://elhumidor.blogspot.com/2009/04/clojure-on-google-appe...
For when TinyURL dies:

And, why use TinyURL here? Your destination URL isn't long; there's no constraining limit to comment URL sizes.

The word "Java" is misleading; it's really the JVM, which means most of the mainstream web programming languages, in their JVM versions.

I wonder if it will run all Java bytecode. Scala and Clojure would be great. Plus PHP (via Quercus) would convert a lot of developers. Edit: looks like it should! http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/java/runtime.html App Engine runs your Java web application using a Java 6 JVM in a safe "sandboxed" environemnt. App Engine invokes your app's servlet classes to handle requests and prepare responses in this environmen…
Don't forget JavaScript via Rhino!

I'd much rather have native PHP support than have to run PHP through an unnecessary layer of Java. Thanks but no thanks.

Microsoft's Azure has support for native PHP with FastCGI.
