Hi Phil.

Its not an Objective-C v. Java issue. I would actually prefer Objective-C. Apple eliminated that option for me, so now I happily write WO in Java.


The issue I have with GnuStepWeb (and similar prodcuts) is why re-invent the wheel? Given the number of products out there that are either blatant WO rips offs, or WO-like,
clearly the developers that have used WO have found it worth while. And then for whatever reason, they have turned away and rolled their own. I can only speculate as to what the reasons were for doing this; perhaps they made the correct choice. BUT, how much better might things be if that same effort had gone into IMPROVING WO?


--CMP

My apologies if I have offended anyone working on GSWeb or any similar product. I do hold what you are doing in the highest regard.

I apologize for the OT post to the list. Lately, I have been pondering the wisdom of Apple open sourcing WebObjects.

What about GnustepWeb? I use it, it's in use for comercial sites and it is constantyl evolving. The more developer would contribute, the quicker it evolves.... But it's Objective-C, as the originial.
