Re: Question asked December 2014 about release dates


Are we any closer to an answer than 11 months ago?

Sure, there is already smoke testing going on for 2.8 and you can actually help testing, see: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/google-web-toolkit-contributors/eyilExl01uM/rRXbo3rGEAAJ

A release in December is reasonable.
 

If not, I'm going to start looking at alternate transpilers to JavaScript for JVM languages (Kotlin looks interesting), and I will no longer be able to recommend GWT to others as a robust solution.
 
If you don't want to recommend a robust solution just because it does not meet an announced release date, feel free to do so. Delaying a release can happen in any project. But luckily no one forces you to use GWT as a mature Java -> JS compiler ;-)
