Dear GWT aficionados,

It has been decided to make GSS default in GWT 2.8. I think there are two
ways to do that:

1. Simply change the configuration property *CssResource.enableGss* to true
by default.

*Pros*: People can easily disable GSS by changing the config property
*Cons*: People can easily disable GSS :) and will not be forced to migrate
to GSS

2. Remove this configuration property and make GssResourceGenerator as
default generator for CssResource interface. With this option, the current
CssResourceGenerator is useless and can be deleted. The backward
compatibility is maintained by using the in- memory auto-conversion.

*Pros*: I have the feeling this option will force people to move to GSS or
at least make their CSS compliant with GSS (ready to be converted)
*Cons*: If there is a bug in the converter, that can stop people to upgrade
to GWT 2.8. But the converter was well tested (by google) and if a bug
occurs, we can produce a GWT 2.8.1 bug fixing release.

For GWT 3.0, the old syntax will not be supported anymore.

I've already done the changes related to the option 2:

opinion on that. So what do you guys think ? What is the best option ?

Julien
