I'm just disappointed. I'm sure all of the Mac users out there feel a
bit abandoned right now.

It's not that I expect updates within days of a new browser. My
expectation is that the GWT team communicate with us about trouble
spots *before* new browser/OS releases. There's a big difference
there.
Also, my company would pay real American dollars for GWT, but the
level of service would have to be higher. GWT completely changes the
web-development game. Sadly, "devmode", while probably GWT's greatest
strength, is also its biggest weakness.

As an outsider looking in, I hope that "engineering management" is
more aware that GWT has a community to support and that more could do
more to appease the natives. There's a lot of companies that need to
make strategic decisions based on technical details, such as the
current state of GWT, its plugins, its APIs, its future roadmap.
The GWT team doesn't seem to provide a lot of insight into this,
despite the seemingly never-ending questions popping up on this
mailing list.

Enjoy!
