I agree wholeheartedly with Chuck. Thank you Pascal for your perseverance, hard work, and dedication to the WOCommunity.
Regardless of the future of WO and its users, your tireless work has been instrumental in it persisting as long as it has. Perhaps it is just age speaking, but I am no longer looking for technical battles to fight. I am comfortable doing what I am doing now, but when that ends, I will be happy to use whatever appears to be the most friction free solution to the next problem. That may be WO, but there are lots of alternatives out there, it may not be either. Don’t get me wrong, WO is still a wonderful and powerful solution to certain problems, and I still love EOF and especially D2W. But in a world of iOS connectivity, rich client side JS frontend driven design, targeted UI, big data, and NoSQL caching layers, I’m not sure if I can honestly present the entire WO stack as much of a slam dunk solution as I have in the past. Anyway that is a discussion to be had over beers in April. So, thank you Pascal. I for one, truly appreciate all your effort, and want to wish you the greatest success in whatever you choose to do with your (now) copious free time ;) Your WOWODC drinks and dinners are all on me this year.
