This is the pre-I/O branch.
GWT 2.1 is in releases/2.1 (and yes, it's misleading!)

GWT 2.1.0 is in tags/2.1.0

If HandlerManager works, you can keep it (as it's still used inside
Widget, it's still fully functional). I'd however switch to a
SimpleEventBus and see what happens (FYI HandlerManager wraps a
SimpleEventBus and adds some behavior specific to handling DOM events,
and I think also some things for backwards compatibility)
