Ok, so we have four pages in the wiki that tells how to configure Apache for 
development, and numerous pages on how to install WOLips and the core WO 
frameworks. We need one or two pages maximum! So we need to define what is the 
The One True Way to install and configure everything for development.

My personal preferences are:

* Install WO in /Developer/WebObjects with woinstall.jar

I think installing WO with the Apple dmg is unsafe, because it install stuff in 
/System, and Apple have been know to remove stuff they don't support or 
third-party tools from /System when new releases of OS X are made. Installing 
everything in /Developer/WebObjects or /Library/WebObjects is much safer.

* Install Eclipse/WOLips with Golipse

IMHO, that's the best way to install the tools, since they install all required 
plugins + the correct version of Eclipse. But since the default WOLips 
properties are set for /Library and /System, we would need to change them to 
/Developer/WebObjects when installing from Golipse.

* Install Wonder's wotaskd + the adaptor

Everyone should have a copy of Wonder's wotaskd for development. Even if 
someone is using DirectConnect for all development, having a copy of wotaskd is 
useful.

Opinions?
