Re: WO 5.2.2 & Panther & Xcode

My head's still spinning from the upgrade. From a Cocoa perspective, which I'm far less familiar with, I think the Controller layer is plenty worth the upgrade.

However, here are the issues I'm facing on the upgrade from a WebObjects perspective:

1. As I understand it, I can no longer develop WO apps that will deploy on my Jaguar XServe box. This is quite a harsh penalty to pay for a .01 upgrade. This also makes the upgrade sting OS X users harder than Windows users (again, as I understand it).

2. When I open old projects in XCode, my .wo (WebObjects Builder) folders no longer open in WebObjects Builder, but instead as simple folders containing a few files. Inconvenient for me, at last.

#1 has me in a bit of a tizzy as to how to proceed. Should I punish myself and roll back to Jaguar so I can continue to deploy my apps? Should I consider deploying on Linux or Windows so I can make an easier migration? Should I just freeze development until I can get everything redeployed on 5.2.2? None of these options is real pleasing to me.

I'm surprised by the lack of discussion on this topic. If I'm making this seem worse than it is, please let me know.

For those of you who have upgraded has it been worth it?

Are the benefits so great that we should upgrade now or wait until the end of this development cycle?
