Those links look useful, thanks Marc. I am reasonably well educated on Rails (observers with long memories will remember that I have commented on Rails threads in the past couple of years), so I'll review and see what seems to be BS and sour grapes - an unpleasant combined taste, I am sure.

Hello,

 I think "tone" is something that it is permissible to upgrade :-).

Maybe the negative sounding statement(s) can be moved out of the
introduction block to the proposed new "Disadvantages" section ?

The WO Wikibook introduction sounds more neutral to me in comparison:
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Programming:WebObjects

A fair (ie not just WO propoganda) comaprision with Rails could
usefully be attached to the "OSS Alternatives" section.

I found one comparison in the WebObjects WikiBook. I just added some
links to the WOCOM Wiki with pros and cons to be - hopefully - fair
there also:

WO to Ruby on Rails (2005, Deirdre Saoirse Moen, Rails side)

WO vs Ruby on Rails (2006, Jonathan Rentzsch, WO side)
Does anyone have these slides ?
