More and more JBoss projects are moving to GWT. And they do it for a good reason:

If you are familiar with Java development and don't want to become the next web developer expert, then GWT is a good choice. With GWT you can stick to eclipse, fire up a debugger and write unit tests.

It has a rich set of UI widgets that you can use out of the box. The widgets also force a common look and feel across implementations.

First glimpse at the new BPM console

It seems, that they are using GWT-ext and not Ext-GWT for the BPM console (see at the end of the page). This can help in the debate and the difficult choice between GWT-Ext vs Ext-GWT

Hm..... if Jboss can build a product based on the free GWT-Ext, maybe we at our company can do that, too.

Makes me reconsider previous decisions...
