The only open source alternative that I know of that is based on the
concepts of WebObjects is Tapestry at
http://jakarta.apache.org/tapestry. You can use Hibernate and/or
Cayenne to replace EOModeler apparently although I've never done
anything other then download Tapestry and run the example app so it may
or may not help you. As for being "forced into a license" by using
WebObjects, that's true of open source as well and no one is actually
forcing anybody as far as I know. Even with Open Source software
you're still legally bound to the license agreement that comes with it
(which is the Apache Software license in the case of Tapestry). You
may want to read those licenses before switching to a fully open
source system. They can be just as restrictive as a commercial license
in some ways depending on what you're trying to do. That said, I use
open source all the time in most aspects of my development. YMMV.

Art / Chuck,
Man, I love you guys. You've been here forever and always have the
best advice. It's a very comforting feeling to get replies from you
guys.
Well, I kinda knew the answer before I asked. Let's get creative
here... Is there any way to use the point-n-click design methods, as
with Interface Builder for WebObjects, but either in a different IDE or
to build something other than a WebObjects application? Assuming that
I will may end up using something like "Hibernate" to replicate the EO
functionality, the only major remaining piece would be the front end
work and how they tie in together. Any ideas?
The goal here is to have the speed of development that WebObjects
provides but to not be forced to deploy a true WebObjects
license/configuration (e.g. monitor, etc.). If not, then I guess we're
left with something like DreamWeaver and their JSP templates (not
really the level of quality I wanted).
