Hello Robert,
Any chance you or any from your company could attend the WOWODC this
year ?
http://www.wocommunity.org/wowodc08/
WO is more than alive, and getting new adopters. Today, I gave a
short (45 mn) introduction to 9 young students from the engineer
school in Sophia Antipolis (France); to my own surprise, they were
more than receptive, impressed.
Cheers,
Christian Trotobas

For some time now, my company has been set on leaving WebObjects.
We have been running WebObjects 5.2 on Windows servers. We haven't
moved 100% yet, but my next project will be using JavaServer
Faces. And another fairly new project will be using OpenLaszlo
with our existing J2E back-end.
Company's reasons for leaving:
1. WebObjects is proprietary
2. New versions of WebObjects is not supported on Windows
3. Perceived lack of knowledgeable WebObjects programmers (I'm in
the Chicago suburbs -- Northbrook, IL, to be precise)
We do NOT use:
1. Xcode/WebObjects tools [Xcode or WOBuilder or EOModeler] (except
for me on a MacBook Pro -- only because I requested it)
2. EOF
3. WONDER
4. Servlet container (which I do not prefer anyway)
I personally enjoy WebObjects development and wish that WebObjects
would be more palatable to companies such as mine.
Please excuse the ranting, but I want someone at Apple to know that
as great as WebObjects technology is [I personally think it is the
BEST I've seen anywhere], it is losing ground because if it's lack
in thet top 3 items mentioned. I wish so bad that Apple would do
something about it.
I'm guessing people's response will be: Don't hold your breath.
Pity. :(
