Edit your resources section in your pom.xml.

  ...
  
    
      src/main/resources
    
    
      src/main/java
      
        **/*.java
        **/*.gwt.xml
      
    
  
  ...

You can also edit the maven-jar-plugin to exclude them from the final JAR.

    maven-jar-plugin
    
      
      
        **/*.java
        **/*.gwt.xml
