XMPP Group Chat with Google App Engine

Question

The Google App Engine has an excellent XMPP service. One of the few restrictions that it has is that it does not support receiving messages from group chat. This is the only thing I want to do with this. :( Can I run a third-party XMPP / Jabber server in App Engine that supports group chat? If so, which one?

Answer 1

No. App Engine applications can only process HTTP requests directly - you cannot start arbitrary servers in App Engine.
