David, Good summary but I'd add one more thing. As long as Google remains committed to GWT , without releasing a comparable widget set for all languages, I think the writing is on the wall. Already the Google Wave framework favors java. That is probably a glimpse of the future for Google, which is a shame because I prefer python to java for most projects.
