That's weird. If you google "gwt" the summary record in the google results says " Java software development framework that makes writing AJAX applications like Google Maps and Gmail easy for developers". Looking further, however, I see several other people saying definitively that Gmail is not GWT. The GWT page says some definitive things about what *is* written in GWT (Wave, AdWords) but not so much about what is *not*. Google should do something about that nasty disinformation.

I also have genuinely used and experienced the portability of GWT and it is quite real. I know I also saw an interview with the Rasmussen Brothers where they went off about how much porting effort GWT saved them on Google Wave and they were the guys who wrote Google Maps. I'm now curious to read a straight answer on where Google is actually using it.
