Yes, that one's good! ;-)However, we may be mixing up two (or more!) conversations here. whywebobjects is meant to be a WO advocacy site, with comparisons, testimonials, links to sites and companies using WO, etc. I got the domain names (whywebobjects.org, .net, and .info) last year, and sent an email to the group for suggestions back then, but when I didn't get any, I let it languish with just a placeholder page (which also asked for suggestions ;-).
The topic arose again just before WWDC, and this time there was lively discussion, which I'm sure will shame me into being a more active caretaker. (Already I've just received some offers of help and wiki hosting.)
whywebobjects.org will be separate from the site containing code, techniques, downloads, etc. (Although I'm sure they will link to each other.)
One name related question we can decide on is which TLD we want as the primary name (the one the others redirect to). whywebobjects.org is good, but I also like whywebobjects.info. (Or does anybody prefer whywebobjects.net? Not my favorite, though.) Thoughts?

It will contain link to existing resources (the two wikis, Apple's WO page, WOCode, etc.) but will also contain a list of people using WO, success stories and what's/why WebObjects. In fact, I already have something, but since I'm trying to learn CSS/XHTML at the same time (I'm still living in a HTML4 world), it's ugly : http://www.os.ca/wofoundation/ - What's WebObjects will contain info about WO (mature, used for big sites, etc.) - How to start : links to documentation/tutorials - Resources : links to the wikis, Apple's site, etc.- People using WO : list of WO dudes, including good details (number ofyears using WO, number of apps, other technologies used with WO, how many devs, etc.)- Success stories (not in the menu for now) : success stories like theaward for SiteMaker, forward migrations, etc. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
