Made for an interesting walk back to the hotel :-) I'm just glad that it looks like we have a strategy to deploy. It was pert' near game over for a while there. boy, howdy. I tell you what.

They're only officially available as part of MacOSX Server 10.4 now. Since you can't buy a separate deployment license, this becomes a licensing issue. So, yeah. If you can buy a copy of MacOSX Server 10.4 and rip the serial number out of that, then you should be fine. I was referring to the acquisition/use of the license key.

Only that this method would provide you with the key to test building and deployment on your dev. box.

As far as I understood from reading the WO mailing list, WO 5.3 Deployment isn't available yet so I don't know if this will work and the number can be found easily on 10.4 server. But people on the WO mailing list suggested this should possible (and that the key doesn't check the platform). Anyway, I e-mailed the people I know who attend WWDC to get back to Apple in the feedback session so that at least *deployment* is possible...this is stupid. Thanks for the update.

I asked in the Q&A of one of the WebObjects session. I can't really talk about the session here, but it led me to the servlet deployment strategy. Yeah.

I haven't tested it, but it should Just Work™ Just don't use the new java collections stuff, and whatever else they added in, and you might be OK. Test it first, though... I do know that you can compile under 5.3 and deploy on 5.2 (our server is still a Panther server as well), but I can't verify just how well the app runs - it runs, but is there something scary waiting to happen?
