This and related threads have been fascinating to follow: the passions
stirred, the debate etc.
My comments:
- Surely the very talented, well compensated technical lead and
business lead (Some would argue there isn't one of the latter. )
recognize the power of WO
- Surely they recognize the marketplace lead (technical, functional,
whatever) they have had versus other offerings
- Surely they realize how rapidly that lead can be or is being eroded
- Surely they understand how rapidly this world is evolving and changing
- Surely they have presented all the arguments made by many on this
list to their more senior managers at Apple because they believe in
what they are doing
The only logical conclusion(s) from these self-evident statements for
why WO isn't promoted better than many would like or why development
tools aren't more advanced on non-Mac platforms and why plans for tool
improvements are targeted to XCode and the OSX platform are the
following:
- Apple infers an advantage to keep WO closer to home than its avid
developer community would like, including such in house advantages
asiTunes, Apple Store etc
- Apple sees WO as another opportunity to draw developers to its
platform, including XServe
