Mvp4g looks good, certainly more concise than GWTP.  When I started using
the GWTP plugin and it generated so much code for me, I got scared.   GWTP
would certainly be a good choice if you were following the google-suggested
MVP for big applications.

The comment discussion here is pretty interesting, with the GWTP and MVP4G
authors defending their design choices.

One day, I'd like to propose a competition with real cash prizes for "most
 elegant MVP framework in GWT".    For example, in the comment thread above,
it would be interesting to see experts in each framework develop a full
(albeit simple) application in each framework.  (Oh, if you have some cash
money now, I'd be pleased if you steal the idea and start this competition
today!)

I keep wondering, why can't GWT have an MVC model that is as simple as Rails
or PlayFramework?
