hello rod, this sounds like a great idea. before i started using GWT i used a lot of the mighty YUI components. a tight integration of YUI into GWT would be great because the basic GWT widgets are not sufficient for real world projects. however, it all depends on the speed of a potential integration. and GWT developers do not want to sacrifice type safety - i think they usually use java and GWT because they love strong types.
