That's short-changing Dojo. I've worked w/ Dojo since late 2007. One can
build complex Web client systems using that toolkit. It has an extensive
widget subsystem, and other features that GWT has yet to match.

Dojo and GWT address different requirements.

One of GWT's great strengths is to provide a web client development
environment that leverages Java tools and knowledge.

There exists an excellent "executive overview" presentation by Bruce Johnson
on Scribd that describes GWT. You might spend 15-20 minutes reading it as a
way of helping you decide a direction.
