Re: future of gwt & who use gwt

I think in the future GWT will compile to Dart for browsers that support Dart and compile to JS (using the dart compiler) for older browsers. 

Also it seems like that (typed) Dart syntax is very similar to Java so it should be possible to convert a GWT/Java project to Dart. It wouldn't be completely automatic (deferred binding could be a problem) but I think its doable.

So I think you won't have any downsides of using GWT now. GWT will be supported a long time as its used in a lot of internal google projects. If you do not choose GWT you have to use JavaScript directly. If Dart becomes successful you have the same problem: How to convert a JavaScript application to Dart?. Using GWT I think you have a pretty good chance that GWT will solve this problem for you...
