Thanks for the follow up.
The bottom line is that for the current contract that I am on, WO is plagued in two (of the same old) areas:
1) Lack of developers. As we all know, its a pretty tiny marketplace. The people generally are top notch, but nonetheless for a large company they need from a risk management perspective to know that they can find people, whether current employees or run over a bus, find more interesting things to do in life - or whatever.
There are still some of use contractors out here. :-)

2) Lack of client side stuff. I personally have steered clear of _javascript_ since when Netscape first prefixed the name 'java' onto their client-side browser scripting technologies. Nonetheless, for large companies and for internal-only back office operations, it is nice to be able to deliver quasi-native-desktop application working environments to folks within the browser with minimal risk to core functionality. It seems that GWT is relatively mature now and is possibly a solution for the work scenario I am in.
I will also follow up with you off-list within the couple of days. Again, thank you for the follow up.

It really depends on what you need because you can communicate with a WO server in many possible ways:
1) JSON/XML via direct actions
2) JSON/XML via REST
3) JSON/XML via component actions
4) RPC via direct actions
5) RequestFactory somehow
For JSON or XML you don't really need anything specific to GWT on the server.
For RPC, WOGWT has a request handler you could use.
RequestFactory is the newest RPC method in GWT and could be very useful, but I haven't heard of anyone integrating it with WO yet.
What are you looking to do?

Hi All,
Does anybody know status on the WOGST adaptor (is it reliable/well designed?) - or is there another standard technique to use to be able to utilize GWT on the client side with WebObjects on the back end?
