- there are so many new cocoa technologies that we could use (bindings, core graphics, ...)

One of the advantages of WO / Java is that it is cross platform. Now, moving to Eclipse based tools, it is more cross platform than it was looking recently. Tying it to Cocoa technologies would be a step backward as a web platform. That said, I would love to see EOF back in Obj-C for Cocoa applications!

I've heard this argument before, but I have a hard time understanding how tying into Cocoa technologies would be a step backwards as a web platform? After all, the platform that the server software runs on doesn't dictate the client platform. Is it a deployment advantage? Development advantage? I've never really understood this.

Requiring deployment on OS X is a deal breaker for many places. WO does not have that huge of a market share to begin with, why cripple it?
