I was sceptical of Google Web Toolkit (GWT) before the JBoss Rules guys picked it up - partly because it is so radically different from other Java-Web Frameworks. But if you try out the BRMS you'll see how powerful it can be (and how well GWT integrates with an SOA type backend). One small point: GWT does *not* use Java in the browser - it' compiles the Java to HTML and Javascript. I've a little bit more on this (and other alternative frameworks) at the blogpost below: http://www.firstpartners.net/blog/technology/java-server-faces-jsf/2008/03/13/web2-with-javastruts2-spring-mvc-flex-javafx-and-google-web-toolkit/ If you think version 4 is good , version 5 of the BRMS (renamed to Guvnor) is even better – the existing features are more powerful, and you gain scenario based testing to ensure that rules do what you think they should do.
