Hi, As I have too many JavaScript file and most of them are static and are in Apache or BSD licence. So it doesnot make any difference if I combine all the JavaScript into a single file. Is it a recommended way? Using GWT Linker as Bruce and Thomas say is most appropriate way? What are the performance aspects? Are there any plans to have exclusive javascript bundling? Regards, allahbaksh
