But the thing that bothered me the most was the lukewarm response from developers to Jobs. After the exciting announcements from last week this was a good a chance as any for the developer troops to be enthused... and they weren't. I've heard many different versions of how developers have reacted to the announcements at the WWDC, from very positive to your contention that they "weren't enthused," so I'm not sure who to believe. Best analysis I've seen is from Henry Norr's post at MacInTouch that said all developers he's talked to have said the Mac OS X plan "makes sense," which he's never heard before at the WWDC. He goes on to say they want to hear more about it before jumping in with both feet. Remember, these are developers we're talking about here, not your average Apple user. Considering how many times developers have been burned by Apple in the past, I'd have to say that response in itself is an extremely positive sign.
