this has already been touched on by a number of people this week, but I
wanted to make it more explicit in the hopes that we might hear
something sooner from Apple...
There was much talk at WWDC of how the WO documentation had been, was
being and would be much improved and extended.
There are some clear directions that Apple are encouraging, such as
deploying with JBoss.
And yet, 5.2.2 has been out for a week now, and there is no sign of any
new documentation, either to help beginners or advanced users better
understand existing capabilities, or to get to grips with new
facilities. We've seen lots of discussion recently about what to put
into the next release, but is there really any point if nothing is
being documented.
I would understand if there were still a few i's to dot and t's to
cross in the new documentation, because of dependencies on when Panther
was finalized or whatever, and it was taking longer than Apple liked to
get it out the door.
But it would be real good to know that it was coming.
The commercial books have been a big help in extending understanding of
WO, but as far as I recall, none of them mention deploying as JSP, let
alone in JBoss.
If Apple is the platform of "easier to use" and "it just works", then
this needs to be made clearer with regards to WO.
And it might also be good if they could again find a way to provide
hard copy versions of the documentation. I like being able to search in
PDF's, but for front to back reading, hard copy seems to still be the
winner.
Thanks for listening
Colin
