Based on the videos from the last meetup, and the notes from the steering committee, many of us got the impression that GWT was moving towards being a pure Java-to-Javascript transpiler, and that the official recommendations from the GWT team was for developers to plan ahead for this.
*GWT 2.8 and Beyond (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltqWRoJ0S-o&list=PL1yReUCGwGvrqscLu1EAyYRPrr0ceEHLE)* These recommendations were repeated at GWTcon, but this time with a reference to the J2CL compiler that Google is working on, and it was more or less directly stated that it is up to the GWT steering committee to decide, if *they* want to base a future version of GWT on J2CL or not. This is causing a lot of confusion in the GWT community, as we all have a hard time distinguishing between what is GWT and what is not, when it comes to the new transpiler. *What are the steering committees future vision for GWT, and how does J2CL fit into this?* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "GWT Contributors" group.
