go ahead and store anything you want into Mongo DB and it dumps whatever rats nest of data you put in there without a care in the world.
is that a good thing? you decide.
my world is mobile, and the web counterparts need a rational routing, and presentation navigation standards to help the mostly client side javascript world of web presentation — and so — I kinda love WO and ERRest because there’s ERXKeys, and D2W and that’s how I want to make a persistence layer I can depend on.

Since Apple now has a large installed base of iOS devices, it would be worth a try again to go beyond consumer products. Your medical application of iOS linked with server technology would fit perfect in the common heard Apple values: "the crossroads of technology and liberal arts".

For me, we’re just about to deploy our first iOS apps running on iPads in our outpatient clinics, linking to our WebObjects applications handling all of the complex business logic that we need in healthcare. We’ve achieved this on a shoestring and it’s due to the great design - seen in WebObjects and of course, by logical extension in the related frameworks inherited from NeXT in modern Apple operating systems.

At the back of my mind, I’m hoping he’ll take an interest, realise overnight what a great technology this is and how it can be a great product for both large and small enterprises, can form part of a great technology stack and support iOS, and as such, re-incarnate WebObjects - the technology we love! Mr Cook - could Apple un-deprecate this technology please? It is really rather good!
