People : I will create a specific survey in a couple of days about
WOLips and WOBuilder alternatives, so wait until next Monday (July
9th) to say how much licenses you will buy. It will be way more
easier to collect the numbers with a survey :-)
The problem is that we don't have "How many licenses would you buy
at $X?" which is really all that matters.

Yes, the survey is asking that question with price ranges :
Some people think that what's missing from Eclipse/WOLips is a
graphical WOComponent editor to WebObjects Builder. Do you want
such a tool, and if yes, how much are you ready to give to have
such a tool.
Yes, but it must be free and open source
Yes, but it must be free (closed or open source)
$100 USD or less
$250 USD or less
$500 USD or less
No, I won't use such a tool
The 82 organizations number is the stats for people willing to buy
it, I didn't count the people that said "Yes, but it must be
free". 16.3% said that they won't use such a tool.
Hi Pascal -
Have you asked the 82 organisations how much they would pay ? We
would buy 3 seats at 400 USD each.

Has there been any development in a replacement for WOBuilder?
Although XCODE is dead I rely quite a lot on some sort of
visual
binding and element view and so keep on using it for that.
Any news would be good - I have seen the thread on the WIKI but
that does not have a conclusion - and I would love to
contribute
financially to a basic but functional replacement.
Mike Schrag and I kicked this idea around a while back. We
made a
ballpark estimate of US$100,000 to US$150,000 in development
costs. Still want to contribute financially? :-)
Yes why not? That's 100$ for 1000 persons, or 200$ for 500
persons. It seems reasonable to me.
The problem is that we don't have those numbers. So far, we
have 82 organizations who are willing to buy/finance a WO
Builder-like tool, and since the average number of people per
organization is 3, that means 246 possible licenses, so that
means 400$ per people.
