Craig was the EOF manager back in the day.
Now that WO is officially abandoned by Apple, the questions for me are:
What is the logical conclusion of pushing WOnder beyond WebObjects? What does that mean in the end? Will we always have to carry around the
legacy WO frameworks? When does the overrides of the broken APIs start encroaching on Apple IP? And if we did, does Apple even care?
Apple will never spend the time or effort to open source WO/EOF!!!! It is NOT the future, Swift is the future!
Have a great day...
