... where people can do group chat from the site, and also allow them to "subscribe" to get chats (in their XMPP/Jabber client) that are posted there.

Check out the Hangouts API here:

Scratch Hangouts API.. it is too "video" centric and appears to rely to heavily on the actual Hangouts UI, rather than being a low-level chat API as I first thought.

Instead, check out XMPP on AppEngine:

Flask Socket-IO: https://github.com/miguelgrinberg/Flask-SocketIO
