Well I meant expect more in the sense of (cmd-ctrl-d) "regarding something as likely to happen" and from the Thesaurus in the anticipate sense, not the require or insist on sense.
People use Rails, Django, and Pylons because they think they're cool. Don't know how to get that cool factor into WO. But removing each hurdle would help. Perhaps development on different platforms would help - if we wanted to teach WO, we couldn't because that would require students to go out and buy Macs (something we subtly encourage but don't 'expect').
