Hi Nick, There are a certain class of applications that modify their code at runtime - is the intention that these use the restful Closure JavaScript compiler API? One of the downsides to GWT is the need for compilation (there's no compiler on GAE) - also making this a *requirement* of a straight javascript solution takes away the 'dynamic' part of a 'dynamic language', and turns it into, well, just a language. The Closure JavaScript library does allow us to run without compilation, so we can use it dynamically, but as the original poster noted, it takes up some pretty serious space - it would be great to see google host this on a CDN to support this alongside the compiled scenario. Thanks,
