Play!

If you want productivity use Play. If you want big fat javascript
clients use GWT + Play connected via a Json restful api. For all other
"static" html content use Play's excellent templating mechanism.

I wrote about the concept here:
http://ars-codia.raphaelbauer.com/2011/10/gwt-project-layout-part-3-integrating.html
Presentation is at: http://goo.gl/E1KJ8
Demo project is at: http://goo.gl/XeUEE

Play's GAE module is not really dead and Play on GAE is not slow (we
are using it).

We are currently using siena as persistence layer and we are quite
satisfied as it is also compatible with MySQL and Postgres. But Jeff's
Objectify is what I would use if my app would run on GAE-only.
