What Hacker News says
6 sourcesI am not sure why this stuff is posted now, but as someone who still need to use WebObjects at work because of a legacy product, we use instead Project Wonder:
https://github.com/wocommunity/wonder
https://wiki.wocommunity.org/
Because Wonder is more or less patched & maintained while WebObjects is in abandonware state since 2008 (and officially since 2016).
In WebObjects Overview (2001) [pdf]Looks like it's still kicking

In PDC 1996 Keynote with Bob Muglia and Steve Jobs [video]Yeah, the iTunes store is still WebObjects.
Project Wonder is community supported additions + fixes to WebObjects. https://github.com/wocommunity/wonder
Meanwhile, I found this hat on eBay yesterday: https://i.imgur.com/CuInqYo.png
In Apple and NeXT announce merger (1996)No it wasn't. Apple Online Store was vanilla. But iTunes Store at least used the Project Wonder libraries which is almost a fork in of itself.

In Apple stops support for WebObjectsIf you mean WebObjects its libraries used almost the exact same method names e.g.
EOUtilities.objectsMatchingKeyAndValue(key, value);
You can still see a lot of the original code in Project Wonder e.g.

In Java Was Strongly Influenced by Objective-C
