This last statement seems to contradict it self so to ovoid any confusion (as I and several others I have talked to are confused about this);
GXT (Ext-GWT) does NOT use the GPL (License) it uses its own license http://extjs.com/store/gxt/ And it Costs money GWT-EXT does use GPL http://code.google.com/p/gwt-ext/ And its free for commercial use like (svn, linux, gwt exc) but if you modify it you must post your changes otherwise you will get in trouble with the free software foundation (like cisco did) And now for a quesiton. I know from using Gwt-Ext for a few months that a lot of the code is acutally written in javascript (EXT, and some Flash for its Charts) and GWT-EXT is a GWT adapter to make it work from GWT. What is GXT, is it also this javascript wrapped by a adaptor for GWT? and What is SmartGWT is it also javascript wrapped by a adaptor for GWT? Personally I think that wrapping a bunch of hand written javascript code in the GWT api doesn't make a lot of sense, mostly due to the way it behaves when you work with it. For instance when debugging in Eclipse javascript will throw exceptions that don't get caught by the GWT adaptors, and your exceptions will bounce directly into the Browser stack, causing you hours of frustration.
