Hi Andrus

Thanks for the answer

Well, migration is a topic on its own, which I didn't intend to cover here,
only to know whether such a move would be needed. And if so, btw, what
about the WebObject part ? Any migration plan for it ?

But before having to go this far : would we be able to "patch/fix at
minima" EOF and WebObjects ? Can we access/modify the sources ? I guess not
but I'm looking for a confirmation.
