Re: state of maven support for Google Web Toolkit ?

[Rahul Thakur <ra...@gmail.com>]

I find myself in the same boat while developing a GWT based webapp. 
Having used the Maven plugin(s) out there, I believe, they can be 
improved (not had good user experiences yet!).

I think we should consolidate all efforts towards a GWT plugin. If you 
have and want to share some useful pieces of code, and add/improvise 
with new features, I'd say add it to the GWT Maven plugin under Mojo 
sandbox, so others can use and improve on it.

Thanks,
Rahul
