3	3	Instead of downloading the Wonder binaries, working from the latest source code directly can have some advantages such as:
4	4
5		-* Learn very much about WebObjects and EOF (and java dev styles?)
6		-* Easily browse and search the source
7		-* Work with a specific svn version (teams, quality control, development cycles)
8		-* Provide opportunities to submit patches for bug fixes or enhancements
	5	+* Ability to conveniently browse and search the source code and learn from the wisdom and experience of the WO committers
	6	+* Put breakpoints in and step through Wonder source when debugging your projects
	7	+* Provide opportunities to submit patches to bugs you might find in Wonder
9	9	* Add logging statements in Wonder source so you can better understand what is going when tracking down hard to find bugs
10		-* Discover the many Hidden Treasures of Wonder
	9	+* Work with specific versions of Wonder in a project - good practice for quality control, especially for teams

14		-As of March 25th, 2011, Wonder is maintained on github. So git is what we use to get a local clone of the repository allowing us to directly use Wonder source.
	13	+Open a terminal and navigate to a directory where you want to maintain a source "working copy" and just use the following easy-peasy commands to download the Wonder source. Note that the build and installation commands are slighly different for WebObjects 5.4.X. So procedures for both WebObjects 5.4.X and 5.3.X are shown below. Pick you poison:
