I think they won't need do. There are about 10 months left till
Leopard ships - if Apple can keep the timeline.  Let's suppose that's
also the timeline for many developers to switch the toolset for those
still on Xcode.

I only see three items missing:

1)  A replacement for WOBuilder (while some people may not want/need
this, some people do)

..and more info, namely documentation for people exploring the toolset

2)  Guides and Tutorials for Beginners to the Community Tools (and
maybe later one single download package/stack with stable versions
collected)

3)  Better Wonder Documentation

Considering the progress on Entity Modeler and the added  pages in the
WikiBook on WO think this can happen till next spring.
