Highly unlikely. Spin-offs are expensive.

Is Apple's approach really benign neglect? They seem to be adding new and useful features. WebServices (based on Axis), JBoss support; those are pretty useful things.

How does it not fit in with Apple's direction?

They just wrote an amazingly successful music store in record time with a handful of developers. If anything iTMS should be used as a marketing prop for WO.

WO/EOF is a great tool and I still prefer it over the other tools I've tried. I don't really agree that making it open source is the answer though.

Maybe an independent company that can run with it, instead of Apple's approach of benign neglect. It really doesn't fit in with Apple's direction, so perhaps spinning it off into a separate company, like they did with FileMaker, might be the kick it needs to really take off.
