At the risk of sounding like I'm telling off the people who agree with me that GWT-RPC has value, the purpose of this thread isn't to establish that RPC will live on in some form, but to discuss how it will be maintained. It _will_ still exist in some form, either as part of the "official GWT project", or as an external "spiritual successor", and will largely provide the same functionality we all either love or hate. If you'd like to support that goal directly, please contact me off-list.
I'm looking for some consensus among maintainers and contributors if something that looks like the GWT-RPC of old belongs under the general umbrella of GWT, even if it has slightly different setup and configuration, and grows to be general enough to function on non-GWT clients, servers. Of the discussed modules being migrated, this one seems to have the most "diverse" opinions around it, so I started this thread to take our collective temperature on keeping the "GWT" name on it and supporting it. Barring any strong disagreement, I'm going to take a day and renamespace everything in the next few days and open the repository up for review and comments, before starting to actually migrate it to the gwtproject github.
