We are building a migration facility purely because that was one of the
first things the customer base asked for when we initially showed Cherokee.
You bet people would have moaned if we'd not done it.
You'll note the word here is "Migration" not "Upgrade".  Cherokee does not
replace Forms, it will be a just another service under iAS.
There is no doubt that some applications will have portions which will adapt
well to the HTML interface so we offer a way of getting there via the
migration tool.   On the other hand you can do stuff in Forms that the
Cherokee HTML interface just can't do.  We believe that there is room for
both products

I'll take this opportunity to plug the "Migrating your 6i applications to
Project Cherokee" paper in San Diego.

Regards

Duncan Mills
