I think Marek is the best guy to respond but let me have a try...

Have you checked the two pages on GH?

https://github.com/majek/sockjs-node
https://github.com/majek/sockjs-client

Given that SockJS arose from use of Socket.io, it made sense to
present it in a way that the Node.js folks could use.

Another obvious implementation opportunity is a RabbitMQ plugin.  That
would be in erlang.  Simon is looking in this..

I think that would be great.

Have you looked at node.x?  That might be a good place to do some hacking....

Or (eg) https://github.com/purplefox/node.x/blob/master/src/examples/java/org/nodex/java/examples/websockets/WebsocketsExample.java
