Comments on: GAE, GWT and other 3 letter acronyms http://chaoticjava.com/posts/gae-gwt-and-other-3-letter-acronyms/ The internet, design patterns, frameworks and Java Sat, 05 Nov 2011 18:39:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Adrian Smith http://chaoticjava.com/posts/gae-gwt-and-other-3-letter-acronyms/comment-page-1/#comment-29913 Adrian Smith Thu, 17 Apr 2008 08:37:33 +0000 http://chaoticjava.com/?p=225#comment-29913 Google seems to work as lots of separate independent entities. For example Google Gears was not supported by most of Google's websites for ages; it still isn't supported by Google Spreadsheets, for example. So I'm not sure if just because other Google initiatives use Java, that'll necessarily mean that GAE will support Java soon. However, having said that, independent of other Google initiatives, if they are serious about GAE, they will want to support other languages than Python, and Java is sure a candidate.
