gwt-phonegap in maven central repository

Using gwt-phonegap has become much easier since the project is now available from the maven central repository. You can use your favorite build tool to add the dependency. It is deployed with the groupId: com.googlecode.gwtphonegap and the artifactId: gwt-phonegap and version 1.0.0.0 For maven this would look like:
<dependency>
      <groupId>com.googlecode.gwtphonegap</groupId>
      <artifactId>gwtphonegap</artifactId>
      <version>1.0.0.0</version>
</dependency>
I hope that saves you a lot of local deployment time when using gwtphonegap. In the next couple of weeks I will also start an archetype for a standard gwtphonegap project, so getting stated will be much easier.

GWT-Phonegap version 1.0 released

Today I was finally able to release gwt-phonegap as 1.0. There has been a tremendous amount of work put into this and I want to thank all the people that contributed in any way.

GWT-Phonegap now supports the full phonegap API and provides a mocked functionality in gwt dev mode. In the next days I will concentrate on improving the documentation, so that getting to work with gwt-phonegap will become much more fun.

To see the full supported features you can checkout the feature tab.

In the next couple of weeks, I will also make the first 1.0 release for mgwt, so that the whole toolchain for creating great mobile apps with gwt will be in a supported released state.

As always if you have any feedback or problems feel free to use the usergroup.

For those who are wondering why I renamed all the packages to com.googlecode.gwtphonegap: This needed to be done to comply with the rules for maven central. I will try to get the project into maven central very soon, so that including it into your build environment will be much easier.
