I too have some concerns regarding WO's lagging behind as I'm deciding
at the moment on whether or not to use WO on my next large project.
One concern I also have on top of what Steven has mentioned is that it
appears that you can only output HTML 3.2 compliant HTML code. I'm
not too happy with having to use such an old DOCTYPE for my HTML code
when most taggers use XHTML and CSS at this point. Being new to WO,
maybe there's (hoping?!) a way to output XHTML without too much effort?
I downloaded Project WONDER yesterday but didn't find anything
(although finding something with only the API docs is a bit tough for a
newbie - that project is "massive").

Hi,
I have been using WebObjects for more then 2 years now but something
has
struck me recently. That is the lack of any major developments in the
WebObjects Application Server. Sure 5.2 was released with a few extra
features (which I personally did not find very special or useful) but
in the
areas which matter nothing is going on. What about Apache 2 support,
Better
deployment? and full integration with standard Java (i.e. no more nasty
NSArrays, being able to use ant etc) and junking the WebObjects
development
environment which apple should be ashamed of (we don't need it as I
have
java development tools). It seems to me that Apple are not giving
WebObjects any kind of priority, so after 2 year we now looking at
migrating
away from WebObjects to java servets and jsp just because this
technology is
moving forward and WebObjects is not. does anyone feel the same way or
should I be looking at sticking with WebObjects...
Cheers,
Steve.
