Short list?:

Ajax.framework - Ajax the WebObjects way
ERXGenericRecord - will* methods plus much much more
Auto EOEditingContext locking
ERMigrations - Easy database schema change managment
ERPrototypes - Consistent set of Prototypes for many databases
Validity - Model based validation
ERDirectToWeb - Lots of extra stuff for D2W applications
ERTaggable - Tagging mixin for WebObjects apps
ERAttachment - Attachment mixin for WebObjects apps
ERJavaMail - WO wrapper around Javamail
Any number of things in ERXExtensions


Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Gustavo's goal to compare WO with other Web development technologies as part of a computer science course? How much can a student expect to learn while also spending time for other classes as well? WO itself is huge. Add WOnder on top of that and I think you'll be guaranteeing the Gustavo doesn't finish his assignment by the end of his course. I mean, how much of the above short list will Gustavo actually need in the next few months?

I think expecting a WO newby to learn WO plus WOnder concurrently may be enough to drive some newbies to other technologies. I'm a proponent of the KISS principle wherever possible; e.g., learn WO basics first, then add WOnder when you understand WO basics.
