Yah, its a pitty, but the Google guys are pretty down on Maven.

I once asked them to look into making it more maven friendly, and got throughly blasted. if I remember correctly the comment from one of the GWT developers was something along the lines of "we don't want to waste our time with garbage like maven". I didn't bother to argue about it, because if you know maven and like it, you know why its advantageous, and if your that set against it it won't matter what others say.

However there are a few maven plugins for it, and combined with the war overlay feature, it not to hard to get it all working and integrate with other projects.

Peter Thomas did a great side by side you should checkout:

Good article, if perhaps a bit one-sided. I can understand how
separation-of-concerns/composability comes slightly more natural to Wicket. However the performance, flexibility and component repertoire of GWT along with steadily more capable browsers leaves me with a feeling that "I'll get
more bang for my buck".

Until GWT has a build system that is better I'll stay away from it.
Since version 1.6 today, it uses normal Ant scripts (which I suppose is easy
to mavenize).

Thanks guys,
