I hate to chime in with a 'me-too' but I have spent some time playing with
WebObjects 5 EOF stuff, and I can say that I can see a LOT of reasons why
a ObjC EOF would absolutely ROCK!
What I don't get is the arguments/discussion on drivers, etc. Why not have
an ODBC EOF driver and only worry about the DB's having ODBC support? The
JDBC for WO 5 works fine (at least with OpenBase).
If that's the case there is nothing standing in the way, and the
functionality would be a great asset.
It would be a tremendous shame to let such a kick ass technology die off.

No, EOF is vital. ObjC is not.
So you disagree with Steve Jobs' statement:
"Objective-C is the native language of MacOS X."
To that end, doesn't it mean that having a tool available IN that
native language is important?
ObjC is the core of OSX. EOF is not a part of the core of OSX.
But it should be.
