Daniel, I was at Google I/O last week and decided ask for myself.. the responses I got, was NOT good I flat out asked one Googler, working a developer "bar" in the main lobby (not sure what team he was on) "..should I continue my project that's not yet released, in GWT or what..?" and he appeared to be reluctant to say...suggesting that something was up! he then went on to say he would change it to DART as it is not yet a complete standard.... So then I asked "..what about JSP/Appengine or Python?" and with a big Grin on if face he shuck his head affirmatively violently ... as if to say he doesn't want it to be said that "he told me so"
right now we need some GWT folks to step up and say something definitive!!! this "rumor" has been going around for a while now.. and there were no Sessions on GWT at the IO2012 other than Porting GWT to DART !!! I went to a session on Appengine /REST and a a question was asked at the end of the session regarding REST and GWT the answer was also suspect... I think this link will take you to the session ..forward to the end... https://developers.google.com/events/io/sessions/gooio2012/121/ On Friday, June 22, 2012 1:54:29 PM UTC-4, Daniel Kurka wrote: > > I can assure you (since I am deeply invested in GWT) that GWT is in no way > of being phased out.
