I see the problem here: I don't consider GWT just a web framework (and maybe I'm wrong about that). I consider it a platform on which web frameworks are built (like Vaadin, GXT, Errai and so on). It involves compiler, language, tooling *and* a web framework. And assuming it as a platform, I

I rather prefer formal, concrete documents from the steering committee. Keeping all the things just as informal make the project feels like a school project, with no commitment to quality and deadlines. I can't take a project seriously when a documents says there would be a release 02/DEC and

Hi Gilberto, I can understand your frustration of the GWT 2.6 release not being final right now, but GWT has always had a release policy of, It's done when it's done, which actually makes sense to me. We want to make sure that the quality of our releases is consistently high and the only way to

Another thought: Christian Sedilek, Dan Kurka, and myself can also be found pretty frequently in ##gwt on irc.freenode.net for a more informal discussion - I'd love to see more steering committee members hang out there, even if just idling most of the time, and chatting once in a while.

That would be great. I know that they are busy with the EU conference this week, but there were a lot more questions to be addressed. I already gave some feedback that we might need to expand the panel QA's next year (either split them by some topics or extend the time). On Monday, December
