Hi All, I agree with gregor (on lots of things not just this thread :) ...) , the JRE emulation of GWT will prove to be deciding factor in the long run. For instance if you wanted to package your logic with your data in the true Object Oriented fashion, GWT provides a way to move the code from Server to Browser so you can move where the work is getting done;
//For instance; Mortgage mort = new Mortgage(); mort.setRate(6.5); //72 months mort.setLength(72); //more setters exc... List <Payment> payments = mort.calcPayments(); With GWT you can just set the data from GWT text fields and calc the payments all in java script, or on the server fill it up from a database and calc for a print out of a mortgage agreement exc... With all other AJAX libraries I have looked at you would need to re write you code in two languages, to achieve this! In addition I have ported apache commons logging (i_log) to work in GWT, so you have a way to debug your calcPayments method where ever it runs. I have not started work on having i_log direct it's messages through log4j or suns internal java logging api but I will probably get to that this year. But you can use i_log server side for log FILE output now.
