Eclipse / wolips / X-Code –– Baffled

Hello;

I'm reading between the lines on this mailing list over and over amongst the whispers and murmours and am still not quite sure what is going to happen with the WO toolset. I can appreciate that EOM and WOB are going to get the axe, although there is no clear indication of *when* they are going to go. Is it going to happen at 5.3.?/ 5.4/5.5/...? Yesterday Chuck said in a post...

Apple is deprecating their Xcode and tool support in favor of WOLips.

...but in one of Apple's open emails to this list they say...

...Making WO work well with ANT and the most popular IDEs, including Xcode and Eclipse

Which mentions X-Code and Eclipse. Is it the case that they will be advocating wolips's ANT tasks as the only viable build process for WO? What about SSD or do we have to arrange that ourselves open- source style? Is it the intention of Apple that eclipse will be the only viable platform for WO development?


and want to encourage variety within the community...We will work to assist the community...been working with several open source projects. This will become public soon.

It's a really big ask to expect somebody to stop work for a week in order to fly all the way from New Zealand to conference in the USA every single year just on the off chance there is any meaningful/new WO information imparted. I feel that claiming to be "assisting the community" and then keeping the bulk of the community (including some like me who do contribute articles and framework) in the dark on timing and logistics of these obviously quite massive changes is an extraordinary contradiction.


cheers.
