But even that would only work for one Mac OS X version, because older OS versions had fewer thread perform methods and newer OS versions will likely add more.
Hence, I mentioned that I assume the framework is "more or less stable". But this is a possibly problem for any interface, including those from categories.

Ah yes, this will solve the compiler warning! Since in this case, the interfaces of categories will be implicitly added. In fact, I can declare my delegates like this.
Still, I see an advantage when using protocols. The argument of changing interfaces does not count IMO, since Categories are prone to changes as well. If sometimes the category get removed or the methods get changed, my code will not run anymore ;)
I don't think this will happen, though.
Thanks for replying and the hint!
