    Which is about the biggest ******** ever. WebObjects and the tools
    haven't changed and evolved as much and as fast since 1999.

    Actually, my application is totally usable with 5.4. I know that 5.4
    has some problems, so what? 5.0 had problems too. 4.5 had. 5.1 had. So
    what? It will always be like that.

    But you could as the tools didn't evolve when Apple maintained them?
    Come on! Now they are open source, there will always be someone
    picking up, helping, patching ... maybe not as fast and nice as Mike
    right now, but it is open. You can pick it up yourself and do
    something about a missing feature.
