followthrough.
Unfortunately, though, they aren't all leet Cocoa people, many are
barbarians who use cra^H^H^Hstuff like Carbon, not realizing that the
Mac
really began with the purchase of Next and all that stuff from before
should
be tossed out like the garbage it is (if I'm channeling the attitude of
the
list properly). These are the people who have been developing on the
Mac
since 1984, so their issues won't be purely focused on Cocoa.
Don't get me wrong, NeXTSTEP was cool, and had a lot of really great
things that are now in Mac OS X. However, why must people have this
attitude that the old Mac OS was therefore garbage and didn't have any
nice features at all that we might want to keep? Where does this
animosity come from, anyway?

I would certainly feel a lot more comfortable going into full-time
Macintosh software development knowing that I was joining a group of

(many of which seem to be about providing documentation to pick up
Apple's
slack).
