I'd prefer if someone reviewed them before (particularly gwt-events; 
gwt-http, gwt-window and gwt-history have nothing controversial in there 
IIRC, except maybe for the fact I removed support for "old browsers" –they 
should theoretically work in IE10+, Firefox ESR, and evergreen browsers).
Also wrt the choice of groupId and artifactId.
If you'd prefer that I don't wait before I move them, that works for me; 
but I'd rather have a second pair of (critical) eyes look at the code 
before I push anything to Central (btw, we need to ask Sonatype OSSRH for 
the org.gwtproject groupId, and grant release rights to a few people; who 
does that?)

I'll change my yet-unpublished advice to be "start the project in your own

I'd rather go for the second advice then.

(fwiw, I tried to follow your yet-unpublished blog post for gwt-http, 
gwt-window and gwt-history, and have it show clearly and cleanly in the 
commit history; it took some time but at least they can serve as examples)
