I'm trying to use gwt project generated by using the gwt-maven-plugin
archetype but don't very far. I feel I must be making a simple
mistake.

It would be great if maven support was provided directly by GWT.

Here is are the steps I followed with gwt-maven-plugin (from the gwt-
maven-plugin documentation):

1) Generate a gwt project as described here:
http://mojo.codehaus.org/gwt-maven-plugin/user-guide/archetype.html.
2) Import the project into eclipse using eclipse command "Import ->
Existing Maven Project". (I'm not sure that this is correct. There is
also an eclipse command "Import -> Existing Projects into Workspace.
Which is the correct command?)
3) Configure project to use GPE by checking checkbox at "Properties ->
Google -> Web Toolkit -> Use Google Web Toolkit".
4) Create a launch file running "gwt:eclipse". This creates a launch
file and copy it to ".metadata/.plugins/
org.eclipse.debug.core/.launches. as described here
http://mojo.codehaus.org/gwt-maven-plugin/user-guide/comfortable_debugging.html.
5) Restart eclipse.
6) Right click on the launch file created in step 4 and invoke "Debug
As.... -> <launch file name>".

At this point the launch fails with the info below.
It would be great if someone could help me get through this. Its
probably something simple that I'm not experienced enough to
recognize.

Launch failure info:
