I don't see any prospect of Apple dropping WO. It is behind so much of what they do. It isn't a priority for them to promote it but they are definitely making commitments to major clients with WO being a core feature of their enterprise sell.

As to selling it to clients, we may or may not even mention that its WO, depending upon the client. If it is a WebSphere shop, then its just our Java frameworks deployed as a WAR file...who needs to mention WO at all?

If the Java shop is smart then you can usually blow them away with an overview of the WO API.

I'm just dipping my toes into WebObjects (looks really cool so far) but I'm VERY nervous about Apple's commitment to it. I got really burned when they dropped OpenDoc in the 90's, lost almost a year's work and I don't want to go down that road again.

How busy are you WebObject pros?

Do you get the sense that it's something Apple plans to stick with for the next five years or so?

Have WebObjects projects been a hard sell to clients?

Thanks for any info

Ken
