Please everyone - half the problem is everyone asking if it's dead

Here's the deal from my humble perspective:
1) Apple made a long term commitment to WebObjects when they made
it part of the toolset last year.
2) Apple uses WebObjects significantly themselves
Sure, Apple could have kept using WO internally and not made it
part of the tools, but they DID make it part of the tools. It
would be pretty ridiculous to take it OUT of the tools, but keep
using it internally, right?
Amen.
Please, stop talking about it being on it's last legs...it's far
from it. It doesn't get the same presence because, quite honestly,
it's not a very 'Appleish' technology. Apple wants to sell
computers, and glitzy cocoa stuff sells computers - it's their
model, and it works for them.
Not to mention inspiring some very serious Cocoa Envy amongst us
lowly WO developers. Those Cocoa developers have some NICE toys!
