Id be tempted to ask Chris why he is asking the question, because if you are trying to get an idea as to how long it takes to get a GWT/GAE application up and running, its entirely dependent on how complex you are planning to make your application.
As a slight benchmark, I knew nothing about how to write a web application at the end of July last year and very little about how to program in java (although I have dabbled, and have done a fair bit of C and VB programming in the past). I started watching some of the videos from google IO 2009 back in August, started coding in "anger" at the beginning of September and went live with my first beta at a customer side with my application on November 1st. That customer is still using the system, we have 7 other beta testers now, and we are just on the verge of going properly live any day now.... so thats from NOTHING to live in less than 6 months!
