Has a final decision been made on GWT instead of JSF for the console?
Either way, I'm interested in the rationale.
Right now everything is on the table. There are some technical goals though:
1) Limit dependencies on our internal frameworks which burned us in the
past (chicken-egg) and prevents users from deploying "slimmer" configs
with a web console
2) Reduce the ridiculous storage overhead (i think its like 35+ megs
when you count libs in common, half when you don't)
3) Have login time not be insanely slow
4) Have a modern UI that is capable of representing complex domain
topologies.
A working group with various folks (including you) should be forming
sometime soon, and architecture will be one of the first things that
will be looked at.
