Because we would need to port the user interface over to Cocoa/Aqua, and
that takes more than a couple of hours. Besides before we can even start
Apple needs to provide some more complete developer documentation. At the
moment everywhere you look it says "Description forthcoming", "This topic
is under construction". The MacOS X section of their developer web site
is pretty much empty :-(.
At the moment the user interface engines we have for View are X11, Amiga
Intuition, BeOS and Windows. MacOS 8/9 QuickDraw will be next, after that
probably MacOS X Cocoa/Aqua, assuming more documentation is available
by then. Others on the list are QNX Photon and TAO Elate/Intent, if there
is sufficient demand for them.
