I 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
Because Wonder is more or less patched & maintained while WebObjects is in abandonware state since 2008 (and officially since 2016).
Looks like it's still kicking
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
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.
