Hi Marek, Some of the new features certainly sound interesting, especially conditional compilation. But we already had the googlecode gwt-maven plugin, and the codehaus gwt-maven plugin. Now we have the MR branch of the googlecode gwt-maven plugin, released into the same Maven repository as the trunk? That's getting even more confusing.
Do you realise that since "2.0-mr-beta1" is considered by Maven as newer than "2.0-beta26", if people include the plugin into their pom.xml without specifying a version they will automatically get the "2.0-mr-beta1" even if it's supposed to be a branch? (Although I guess everybody does specify an explicit version by now, because past gwt-maven releases frequently had non backward-compatible changes.) My main hope at this point is actually to have a unified and more stable plugin, with a slower and more conservative release cycle.
