Well, all this talk about Roo still makes me unsure of what people
find the most compelling part of WO that they are starting to look at
other technologies for. Indeed, we are all a little skittish over
future directions and future releases with a perhaps non-growing
community. I still find Grails to be more to my taste and it fits a
lot of the technology points I want to find in WO. I haven't thought
about Grails for about a year, but the latest support of Redis in GORM
makes things pretty interesting again.
