Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.

No one has a problem with open source developers making money. On the other hand, many people have an issue when the original open source expectations change for the worse, especially for a cornerstone framework like Spring. I really doubt the major developers [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ 

Spring Framework was the chosen one. However, there was a growing disturbance in the Source. Spring tried to reinvent every library under the sun while ignoring great existing solutions like XFire. There was a controversy involving SpringSource and OpenLogic where SpringSource claimed that it should be the sole supporter of Spring. The SpringSource Application [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[GWT 1.5 final has just become available for download. In what must be a false positive, Avira AntiVir (one of the best antivirus programs for Windows) complains about HEUR/HTML.Malware during the scanning of gwt-windows-1.5.2.zip. Hopefully, the GWT team will take care of the problem quickly.

		<description><![CDATA[On 8/18/2008, the creator of GWT-Ext announced his involvement in the new LGPL-licensed SmartGWT.  SmartGWT - a combination of GWT and the SmartClient Ajax library - is a stealth project which will help fill the huge need for an advanced Java-based RIA framework.  Judging by GWT-Ext, I trust that SmartGWT will be an outstanding product [...]]]></description>

Even though Google eventually buying Yahoo outright probably won&#8217;t happen due to antitrust implications, a GWT-YUI combination seems to kill two birds with one silver bullet.  One of the most common complaints against GWT is the lack [...]]]></description>

In a nutshell, Ext JS and MyGWT are now useless for free commercial use. If you have already based your projects on these libraries, my general recommendation is to continue using Ext [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last Friday, I completed the release candidate of a commercial RIA product using GWT-Ext 2 and a JSON backend. GWT and Ext are two libraries that I kept reading about in blogs, but initially resisted using.
