On the other hand, I am not so sure if having a compiled Java-style lenguage will be a waste of time;

This doesn't really accurately depict what it was.

It was a situation of taking the square brackets out, and using the long names with all the params lumped in parens.

it didn't do any of the other Java-sort of stuff..

You are right but what I meant was to comunicate my experience: I had a developer working for me. He was (is) good at Java and, once he learn to change the "this" for "self" and constructions like


Class object = new Class.new();

to the simpler

Class object = Class.new;

at the time of writing "the logic", he told me he feel "like at home"... even with more freedom
(in ObjC you do not have to care to much about types, so the previous can also ---well it was also possible to--- be writen as


id object = Class.new;
)


that may bring more developers to the unsupported Cocoa/EO development, the best from both worlds!
