Has there been any development in a replacement for WOBuilder?

Although XCODE is dead I rely quite a lot on some sort of visual
binding and element view and so keep on using it for that.

Any news would be good - I have seen the thread on the WIKI but
that does not have a conclusion - and I would love to contribute
financially to a basic but functional replacement.

Mike Schrag and I kicked this idea around a while back.  We made a
ballpark estimate of US$100,000 to US$150,000 in development
costs.  Still want to contribute financially?  :-)

Yes why not? That's 100$ for 1000 persons, or 200$ for 500 persons. It seems reasonable to me.

The problem is that we don't have those numbers. So far, we have 82 organizations who are willing to buy/finance a WO Builder-like tool, and since the average number of people per organization is 3, that means 246 possible licenses, so that means 400$ per people.

If Mike is doing it, I am sure it will be worth the 400$!
Let's say 500$ for a fully functional, polished EntityModeler / WOBuilder bundle... That would be a fair reward, considering all the stuff Mike gave to the community.

I think you can expect selling more than 250 licences. I know at least two companies here in France, in the town where I live, that are so busy that they no longer read the american mailing lists, and probably have not completed your survey. Did Steve Jobs complete the survey? I heard there are 100 WO developpers at Apple, that means 100 licences! ;-)
