I listen to Bruce Johnson's presentation on GWT. It was like an introductory presentation where he really didn't dig in to GWT. But this is a very good one for understanding the road map to GWT. He justifies the decisions nicely.
It would have been great if he discussed the limitations of GWT also. While understanding the difficulties in java2javascripting , there are situations where we really struggle due to it's limitations.
One of those limitation where we were in trouble is the serialization part. GWT has its own serialization model for their own reasons(!) and we had to write our delegates for the third party modules for using them with GWT. Good news is, GWT team now planning to move away from IsSerializable interface in coming versions!
Ofcourse there are lot others and fortunately we are able to get rid of those issues one by one.
