And if Apple really want to know if they are "making money" with us
because of WO, they can use the results of the surveys we do every
year...
I was just in the midst of typing the same thing. Almost all of our
new deployments will be on Linux in a VM infrastructure. And I don't
need Apple to provide me anything. I can't really think of a WO
enhancement that can't be done by a 3rd party. IMO, for the past 5
years, the community has brought far more interesting enhancements
than Apple has. What are you expecting Apple to provide to you that
Wonder doesn't provide to you RIGHT NOW, in an open development
process.

Jesus. Apple will do what they want. Nothing you, I or anybody else
says or does will make much of a difference. Nor should we really
care, it's not like they did something useful in the last 5 years
or so.
You sound like they were some sort of rain god. "Let's show we are
loyal, or else HE might smite us like the flies we are!"

If we want Apple to release new WebObjects versions, beyond
5.4.3, to the community, the worst thing we can do is talking
about Windows and Linux. We should be very clear about this: if we
expect Apple to do anything for us in the regard, we should be
loyal to Apple by only developing and deploying on Apple
equipment. Otherwise, I am afraid that 5.4.3 will be the last
version we will ever see...

1) The customer sometimes is willing to compromise and give you a
Linux box ... deployment on Linux is as easy as Mac more-or-less.
So, if they won't let you use Mac, ask if you can use Linux....
and setup CentOS or RHEL on it.
2) Project Wonder has source for Adaptors. I see IIS adaptor
source in there. No idea how good it is:

Hello everybody,
due to the fact that some of our customers use Windows servers,
I would be interested how others deploy their WO apps on Windows
these days...
The wiki only refers to Apache when it comes to WO 5.4 on
Windows and does not mention IIS...
However, some customers need specific IIS features like Single-
Sign-On via ActiveDirectory or do not want another web server
for political reasons.
How do you deal with that?
Is it still possible to use the old 5.2 adaptors (CGI or ISAPI)
with modern IIS versions and WO 5.4? How about 64-bit-ness?
Would it be possible to set up WO 5.2 and just replace all the
frameworks with the 5.4 equivalents so that at least the CGI
adaptor (WebObjects.exe) from the old version works?
Has Apple ever released the source of the Windows adaptors so
that they could be recompiled for 64-bit IIS?
Thanks for your input.
Ralph
