> 2) It would be cross-platform, since it's pure Java. Currently you
> can't run EOGenerator on Windows without the dlls shipping with WO
> 5.2. This is one of the main reasons WO development on Windows (with
> WO 5.3) is not feasible.

> and maintain than the MiscMerge ones

> 4) It would be quick to write (I bet) since there are many experienced
> WO developers here
