General Development David Chisnall takes a look behind the scenes at Apple's upcoming revamp of the Objective-C language. As with any new language, some things are good, some are ugly, and some are both.

Whatever Apple does will create a standard for Objective-C, because the only real users for the language are the poor souls stuck having to use it to develop for OS/X.

This is nonsense. Do you know how many source lines of code (SLOC) OpenGroupware.org have?

And OpenGroupware.org is all written in Objective C, as you can find out here: http://opengroupware.org/en/about/ -- It is also to be installed on Linux, Solaris, Windows, and Mac OS, as you can see here: http://opengroupware.org/en/install/

And OGo is not even close to the only big objective C codebase.
