The latest Demo can be found here:
http://www.ufacekit.org/qxwt/demos/QxDemo-dev/QxDemo.html. The next
release is scheduled for End of Febuary and I'm just working on a real
world example application as a show case.

>From a technical point of view QxWT is doing the same SmartGWT does
because after evaluating a complete
rewrite in Java it didn't make sense to me from a business point of
view (I guess the same was true for SmartGWT).

I've used SmartGWT some time ago and didn't had any problems with
using it still I decided to start QxWT
because though it might sound strange LGPL is something some of my
customer don't allow to be used (hence all code is dual licensed under
EPL and LGPL)
and because I'm confident that there has to be competition and we can
learn all from each other.

Another important part which made me write the QxWT port is that
Qooxdoo-Widgets are plain widgets which means there are no stores
and all those stuff but I can create my own domain-model integration
(I don't know if this changed since I worked with SmartGWT and GXT).

For those interested on the progress can subscribe themselves to my
