There are cases for both approaches, but I prefer Jerry's
suggestion. Perhaps also some of the advocacy content from the wiki
should move to whywebobjects? Assuming, of course, that it is set up
appropriately. Perhaps take the original advocacy content that was
offered and convert it into yet another wiki?

I think that the two web sites (whywebobjects.xxx and .../wiki/
Programming:WebObjects) should serve two very different purposes.
The whywebobjects site has, and should continue to, run as an
advocacy site. It's content should include lists of (& links to)
successful deployments, testimonials, comparisons and evidence of
superiority over competing technologies (e.g. RoR) and such.
The .../wiki/Programming:WebObjects pages should focus on
educational content. They should include topics showing how to do
things in WO, educational FAQ lists, resolutions to common problems
and such.
Although I think there's room for overlap between the two (and I
certainly believe that they should link to one another), I also
believe that if either attempts to fulfill the objectives of the
other, it will weaken it in its primary purpose. They should remain
separate and distinct.

When I heard that whywebobjects.com had been taken (as I
understand it, just by someone who then wanted to sell it back at
an inflated rate), I registered whywebobjects.org,
whywebobjects.net and whywebobjects.info before the same could
happen to them. I posted a message asking what we should do with
it, what kind of content do we want, should I host it and/or have
Dov put back up the whywebobjects.com stuff, should we do a wiki
site, etc., but at the time didn't get any feedback. Up until a
couple of days ago, there was a placeholder page asking for
content suggestions to be sent to my email address, but due to an
in-progress physical office location move it'll be a couple of
more days before that machine is back online.
Wouldn't it be best to point it to the WebObjects wiki book?
