So you're not going to create an i8n-aware application? Sunday isn't the first day of the week everwhere (e.g. it's monday in Germany). Here is an (untested) solution: DateTimeConstants constants = LocaleInfo.getCurrentLocale().getDateTimeConstants(); int firstDay = Integer.parseInt(constants.firstDayOfTheWeek()) - 1; int offset = firstDay - date.getDay(); date.setDate(date.getDate() + offset); > 3.

By "parse" do you mean format? Use the various ways DateTimeFormat offers. > Off the top of my head, that's what I'm trying to do. 1 More question: > 5.

(A friend recommended this) If the event happens during a change in daylight saving times, you will end up with wrong times. > 6. Are we seeing any updates coming for working with dates?

I'm not a developer, so I can't say anything about that, but if you're sugessting a (maybe restricted) implementation of Calender, here is a +1 by me, because above methods in Date are all deprecated since JDK 1.1, so I really hate to use them, even in a GWT client-class where that doesn't matter much.
