You can most certainly put all of your resources (*.css, *.ui.xml,
*.gwt.xml) in src/main/resources. You do have to make sure that when
you add src/main/resources as a source folder in Eclipse that
Eclipse/Maven do not add an exclusion filter (i.e. remove it).
Another option is to use the Java annotation [i.e.
@Source("../../defines.css")] and use ui:with instead of <ui:style> in
your *.ui.xml. This works very well.
