I think you got the overall vision clearly. The current plan for GWT is to enable the use of GWT in JSF. This needs bumping Seam version to Seam 2, which is currently been worked on in a branch and will very soon be merged in the 5.2 trunk. We'll probably cut a 5.2 M2 release before the end of July. There are no plans to replace the current WebApp (which is heavily geared towards document management) by WebEngine, which has a very different goal. For more info, see http://www.slideshare.net/ebarroca/nuxeo-roadmap-200806 , specially slide 12. What we're working on is to provide several alternatives for developers that need to create applications on top of the Nuxeo ECM infrastructure: JSF/GWT (traditional, transaction oriented applications), WebEngine (more RESTful and "web 2.0"-ish applications), Rich Clients (Eclipse RCP based), RIA (currently working on a Flex-based project). We will provide the frameworks and the building blocks, and developers will be able to easily develop their applications, choosing the best technology wrt their actual needs and preferences. > Good job guys Thanks, encouragements are always welcome :) S. -- Sefane Fermigier, CEO, Nuxeo Open Source, Java EE based, Enterprise Content Management (ECM) New!
