I agree with Jerry as well.
I can get a server back up for the whywebobjects site in the next
couple of days, and could set up the "yet another wiki". ;-) Or
maybe I should wait until after you all get together Monday before
starting any content, and see what ideas come up.
Regards,
Mark

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?
