Don't use that, it is no longer up to date. It was a valiant attempt at ID3 support, but it doesn't adhere to the ID3 specifications very well and it stumbles on real world tags more often than other solutions do.
I can recommend TagLib:
http://developer.kde.org/~wheeler/taglib.html
It uses a C++ API, but it is quite easy to use. Rolling it into a OS X framework is easy (Google it). TagLib adheres strictly to the ID3 standard but by default it uses workarounds for the instances when iTunes doesn't... It is also very stable, actively developed, it's covered by a usable license (lgpl), supports more tags than just ID3, and there's a development mailing list. What more do you want?
