“Sasha Maps is a GWT-based library which provides functionality similar to the Google Maps API (its client side).”

I just looked over the list of gwt projects hosted on code.google.com and found a couple of quite interesting calendar projects that were recently updated for GWT 1.5 – gwt-scheduler and gwtsimiletimeline.
gwt-scheduler is a pretty neat GWT-based calendar implementation, with a couple of calendar views (month&week) & simple scheduling ability.
gwtsimiletimeline is a GWT wrapper around MIT’s simile-widets project‘s Timeline widget. The widget is quite stunning in its timeline/calendard visualization abilities using javascript. Simile-Widgets project also has a very cool timeplot widget – hopefully someone would provide a GWT wrapper for it at some point as well.
I really like the GWT Apps book by Ryan Dewsbury – I’m probably not alone in thinking that it’s the best book out there for any GUI developer looking to familiarize him/herself with GWT and the world of Rich Internet Applications development. The book is choke-full of various basic as well as advanced examples. The two that I personally find very useful are the Desktop (or rather a light-weight GWT portal) example and the high-performance remote event queuing Messenger implementation. The examples and the book are for the latest production release of GWT – 1.4 – but the source code is actually very easily migratable to 1.5 (it was really breeze when I did this for some of my own needs). If you’d like to try it yourself, I found that the source code for all examples in the book is available in files section of GwtApps’ google group.
Darrell from ExtJs just released a preview of the new Grid component that will be part of Ext-GWT (GXT) v.1.1. Here are the previews of various grid views and an implementation of editable grid. More details on the implementation plans for the Grid component are here
