A week a go I found the incredible Google Web Toolkit and decided to develop XMLPortal administration with it. Since I'm using NetBeans, the first thing was looking for NB support on GWT. This directed me to the always interesting Roumen's blog. Unfortunately NB module doesn't support server-side code and I had to configure by hand the new GWT library. This is how I did it:

Can't tell you how happy I am. And I can't even realize why. The fact is that I wanted to make this step from long time ago and there were always things stopping me from doing that. Blai Capdevila, who is impulsing XMLPortal development from the very beginning, has been also compelled by the move. Now is a reality, everyone interested in XMLPortal developement can follow this address xmlportal.dev.java.net and checkout source code from repository.

I made myself more assured about developing free applications. Afterall, what difference it makes for business with few customers, all depending on our services. We tell them which software to install, how it works and what could be achieved --understand me, I mean the real truth, not those achievements found on brochures, talking about how good could be done with software and making costumers feel like dummies, when they eventually are unable to reach such wonders.
