Does any one knows what happend with such an atempt?

Apple rightly decided that this didn't make any sense to spend their precious development resources on. Anybody who refuses to use Objective-C because of the syntax probably also has bigger problems with the language, of which the syntax is only the first level.


Personally, while I have my wish-list (like everyone else) I'd be very happy if Apple took an extremely conservative approach to changing the Objective-C language. It's an exceptionally nice language as it is right now, and I don't want to see it change for the worse.
