If by "further efforts" you mean efforts to improve or add functionality to GWT, yes there are.
The latest release (2.8.2) is more than a year old, but GWT is a mature technology, and current efforts are focused on the next major release of GWT (version 3.0), which will deprecate several internal technologies of GWT, and change its transpiler to use j2cl which are major efforts. You can read more about the current efforts and plans for GWT 3.0 in this group, in threads such as this one:

Hi Rogelio,
Its been a real long time and somehow I missed your reply. Thank you for taking the time to look and respond. Appreciated.
Since then we have pretty much moved on to use Angular 2 and other frameworks except one app that still lives on GWT.
Do you have any clues if there are further efforts planned or ongoing ?

Regarding your presentation:
Slide 5 - mentions that GWT 3.0 has "revolutionary use cases". What are you referring to?
I would add a slide that talks about some of the shortcomings of GWT. For instance:
Widgets out of the box are somewhat lacking, at least if you want eye-candy, but html5/css3 can be used to create layout, panels, and widgets. In addition, any external JS/CSS libraries could be used as well. Lastly, existing layout and other types of panels provide a good foundation for custom layouts and/or widgets.
I would also highlight (don't remember if this was mentioned) that the optimizations that GWT does on Java->Javascript, CSS, and Images, etc, are particularly well-suited for viewing your gwt-based app on mobile devices (mgwt).

Dear community members,
Recently I came across a medium sized company specializing in BI and analytics and pitched them to switch their dev stack from Angular JS to GWT. Though I am yet to know how successful I am in it I definitely managed to create some ripples and start an internal debate.
For this I created a Google presentation
here.
I invite all of you to comment, debate and create a community ready material for all who may need in future.
Let me know if there are any issues in accessing the document.
thanks,
Debasish
