[Pyobjc-dev] Cocoa vs. AppKit

[Bill B. <bb...@co...>]

Ronald,

     Should the AppKit module be called Cocoa instead?

     The Cocoa framework is basically nothing more than a header that 
imports the AppKit and a dylib that links against the AppKit dylib, but 
all of Apple's examples link against the Cocoa framework and simply 
include the AppKit framework for reference.

     At the moment, it is nothing more than a choice of naming, but I 
don't know if that will always be the case-- some day, Apple may stick 
actual Cocoa functionality into the Cocoa framework. :-)

     (I'm actually quite curious why this distinction continues to exist 
in the OS at all... then again, the NS 3.3 based appkit still shipped 
with OS X up to and, I believe, including the public beta.)
