Kind of like saying "Do you like my beachside house? I spent millions of dollars on it and years of effort to get it just so. But at the moment I'm busy working on the other coast so I'd be willing to give it to the council to do what they like with it".

Even if Apple aren't developing WO further, not only would they be sacrificing any income stream they are currently enjoying, but forgo any opportunity to capitalise on their property in the future should the opportunity come to continue developing it.

I don't see it happening either, and can understand why they wouldn't.

Simple solution: Release WebObjects as Open Source.

YEH! right on! That would be awesome! But I doubt it will ever happen.



You'd have a huge increase in the size of the development team, Apple
would
benefit from improvements in WebObjects for their internal applications,
and
the WebObjects community could take control of their own destiny - rather
than relying on Apple to realise what a great technology they're sitting
on.

it sounds wonderfull!
