Hello!
I think you are forgetting .NET which has wonderful tools and it is
tightly integrated with SQL Server and Windows 2000.
WO+Tiger can compete against .NET+Windows 2000, it is cheaper,
faster, easier and more elegant.
But the tools in .NET are completely integrated, very fast and
relatively mature.
WO cannot compete directly against every open source technology
invented, but it can compete against .NET.
.NET requires a Windows 2000 server to deploy, WO a Tiger Server. I
can see business there.

As far as I know, no. Everyone uses third-party Java IDEs. Ruby on
Rails has tools? Everyone uses TextMate or so. If apple pointed
WOLips as the "official" tools for WO, it would still be better
than with all those other tools - and those tools have success.
Interesting point. However, J2EE is a godawful mess, and was so from
the start; it is an examplar of what to avoid. Rails is designed
around the principle of "no configuration", or "programming by
convention", and so TextMate is the ideal IDE for it. WO config
files, eomodels and wods, are complex, and a decent GUI app is
essential. These would therefore have to be part of the officially
supported corpus (except that Apple are deprecating everything, and
have said that they won't officially support anything else).
Send Apple feedback with your concerns, so they may know what the
community feels.
Nah, Apple can read their own lists, just like everyone else.
