So, the decision was to *NOT* have an official plugin (either Maven or Gradle or whatever). The reasons are that we don't want to commit to maintaining them, we don't have the bandwidth to have this new responsibility (with an official plugin, users would expect it to be updated, at a minimum bugs fixed and a guarantee that the plugin works with the latest release of GWT). We want to encourage community efforts though, so we'll add links to the plugins on gwtproject.org (gwt-maven-plugin and gwt-gradle-plugin to begin with; if you know of others, don't hesitate to reply here, or send a patch to the website when the links will be up to add a new link).
