I like to believe that WO, the runtime, is about to evolve very  
quickly in the few next years into something else for which WYSIWYG  
tools --in both, developer and user spaces-- have not yet been  
envisioned. It might even get a different name afterwards because,  
eventhough WebObjects was a brilliant name for its time, its first  
part won't be fitting anymore.

New technologies.
