Hi,

see

https://github.com/LubosD/darling
http://darling.dolezel.info/

Also recently featured on Phoronix and Slashdot (although I'd say it 
received publicity a bit too early).

Cocoa Hello world: http://www.dolezel.info/img/darling/

At this point, it's really interesting only for people who want to 
tinker with it.

I also seem to be hitting quite a lot of deficiencies in GNUstep, so I'm 
very happy that the GNUstep devs are so responsive.

For instance, Bayon also needs NSTrackingArea, which GNUstep doesn't 
have yet. NSRunLoopCommonModes is a similar story. And then there are 
the "File System Resource Properties" in NSURL, which are also missing.

gnustep-corebase needs some love as well, it needs to be bridged with 
gnustep-base (but this is an area where I'm confident I can help).

In the coming months, I'll probably also take on the implementation of 
Apple Events in GNUstep - after initial analysis, I feel like building 
it on top of DbusKit may be a good approach.

Yes, loads of stuff to be done and I'm just getting started :-/
