    Well I say we vote about the name.

    WOLips -1

    You see with all your work, ulrich, etc., it is much more than a
    woeful port. It is a development environment that has WebObjects at
    its target. The Eclipse work is very, very exciting and I think that
    the communities main effort should be in helping it grow. I am almost
    tempted to learn development on Eclipse myself.. but I am still
    trying to master WebObjects!
