Which brings us to now.  Most of us have decades of experience in software 
development and much of that using a toolset that gave us a complete 
scaffolding on which to hang our application specific logic. Dave Avendasora 
had a good analogy.  WO says “You want a house?   OK, here is a house that will 
suit 90% of people, fully built, and here are instructions on how to renovate 
what does not suit you.  Oh, and we are going to surround that house with other 
houses, schools, stores, and hospitals as you are probably going to want those 
too. (Oh, but don’t be surprised if you see a lot of missing person reports. 
The master builder secretly relocates residents who stumble across his plans)..

We know how good things can be and we are not willing to settle for less.  That 
is what defines us.  That is why we are still here.  While some of us, like 
Andrus, have gone away and re-created part of the goodness and added some new 
goodness, we are still all influenced by what we witnessed and worked with.

Subject: Summary of the State of the Community

Dear members of the WO Community,

At WOWODC 2016, we had many discussions about the future of the community. We 
also saw many tools to get forward. But before moving forward on the technical 
side, many attendees made a point: we should find out what unites us. Is this 
only because of WebObjects, or because we use WebObjects and Wonder for rapid 
development? Or because most of you are small teams and are doing full-stack 
development?

So, before we decide to replace, or not, the tool stack, we want to know what 
defines the community and we want for feedback about this.

As for the current operations, the WOCommunity Association still stay up at 
least until January 24th 2017. We have enough money to pay for the hosting and 
the store for the remaining of the year. We can also save some money by moving 
some of the podcasts to mirrors and by running Jenkins elsewhere, or maybe 
everything. If you want to host some of the podcasts (the older ones) or host 
Jenkins, please notify me.

You can listen to the talk here:

http://wocommunity.org/podcasts/wowodc/2016/State_of_the_Community.mp4
http://wocommunity.org/podcasts/wowodc/2016/State_of_the_Community_Followup.mp4

Also, Samuel Pelletier created a Slack channel to discuss the state of things, 
send an email to him or me if you wish to join the channel.

Thanks.
