What's the current plan for GWT 2.7 release?

[Александр Новоселов]

Will you update to Jetty 9.2 (with JVM 8 support)?

What's the schedule: how many days/weeks/months before beta/rc/release version?

[Gilberto Torrezan Filho]

It's easier to understand and accept the schedule from GWT project (or any other Google or driven-by-Google-culture project) when you apply the Valve time calendar to it. Yes, Valve is the pioneer (that's why the calendar received their name), but a lot of companies and groups use that calendar, deliberately or not.

At GWT.create it was said the target was to release GWT 3.0 after Google I/O. Then it was changed to release a 2.7 version shortly after Google I/O, and GWT 3.0 on GWT.create 2015. Well, using some Valve time rules, I'd say we probably will have the 2.7 version about two months after GWT.create 2015.

More about the past plans: http://blog.oio.de/2014/03/31/upcoming-gwt-releases-2-7-3-0-2014-beyond/
More about Valve time: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Valve_Time and http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Valve%20Time

Of course, the Valve time is as inaccurate as using CSS layouts on IE6, so there are chances we get GWT 3.0 like tomorrow (in actual time). But I wouldn't bet on that.

GWT 2.7 isn't released yet because 2.7 wants you to have a better/faster/easier-to-set-up SDM and there is still some work to be done.

Though Google I/O was 6 weeks ago, I did not ask why 2.7 is not released yet?

My question about the current status and plans.

I am interested in the schedule of GWT 2.7 too!

[Thomas Broyer]

We (the Steering Committee) will meet next week to discuss specifically about this.

[Peter Girard]

Any updates?

[Daniel Kurka]

We decided that we are holding GWT 2.7 for the new per file compilation and GSS support.

Both of them are shaping up to be really cool features, but are not done yet. As soon as we consider them done (being live within google and not causing issues anymore), we will put out a release candidate.

We want this to be no later than end of September, but we have always put quality before schedule and will do the same thing here.
