Hi, I used .net with C# successfully for zoomshare.com's domain wizard. C# has a nice Json api that saves some time, but then you need to write your own Json readers for the GWT client. I used the regular GWT Java compiler for the client code, as I would expect porting the GWT compiler would take MUCH MORE than a person year.
