On thing I'd like to see on GWT 3.0 and beyond is the reduction (or complete avoidance) of the Not invented here syndrome from Google: - Using a standard build tool which integrates well with Maven repositories - and don't force the end user to switch build tools just because -

Hi, we have heavy invested our time into GWT to build the product which will be available for at least next 5 years (ERP in cloud). But I think the direction they have made is really necessary and only reasonable. And it should be done year or two before (after SDM and GSS), because some

Thanks Thomas. Good point on getting started experimenting before the compiler is made available. I've been building a few of libraries using APT for code generation recently, making use of the wonderful google square libraries like auto and javapoet. I think it'd be pretty straightforward to

I was probably too specific in asking for early access to the compiler. Early access to elemental 2.0 and jsinterop 2.0 would be really helpful to try and figure out how to port JSNI/JSO code over to jsinterop. Yeah I think finalizing JsInterop including all the pieces to make Elemental

Also worth noting that, outside of GWT-RPC, I think that many of the current major GWT features (widgets, uibinder, etc.) could be ported by the community such that only minor code changes are necessary. I would even hazard a guess that companies like Vaadin might be interested in supporting or at

I'm a bit surprised that there hasn't been more comment on the direction the GWT team plan to take GWT in 3.0. I've been involved in a GWT project over the last 18 months or so where we're developing a large line-of-business app which we expect to have a lifetime of potentially a decade or

GWT 2.8 will be a long supported and maintained branch of GWT. It's just that you can not use the new compiler if you use some of the current GWT library stuff. Upcoming things like Singular, Elemental 2.0, Java 8, JsInterop can all be used with GWT 2.8. You are not forced to upgrade your

Someone in the video commented that there needs to be a very clear messaging around how to best protect/future proof yourself. The Modernizing GWT video was obviously a step in that direction but I'd love to see something more concrete e.g. if UiBinder won't be supported, what should we be using?
