I would love IBM to more formally announce a statement like "pretty much anything that was Domino Web development before XPages is in support mode". If customers are forced to overhaul all their applications the risk is high that parts of the customer base may not follow. The assumption that XPages is exeptional in the market often is not shared outside of the yellow bubble. It's core is derived from a product that died a painful dead some time ago. This does not change the fact that from a Domino perspective this is a hige thing of course. And I agree that you cannot continue with the traditional way of developing Domino applications. Either adopt or move on. The market is full of exiting stuff nowadays (although I cannot confirm this for Sharepoint).
