ironically, one of the objections i hear to projects using cocoa as a
development environment is the perceived difficulty in staffing a
project.  "it's so much easier to hire 10 C++ programmers at the drop
of a hat than the same number for cocoa" is the generally feeling.  its
the same dynamic that empowers VB and similar platforms since a chief
obstacle for management in larger projects is staffing.

until there is a critical mass of readily available programmers, there
wont be a critical mass of work.  and visa versa.  one way to bootstrap
is to have a much more efficient mechanism to match talent with work
which allows a project manager to hire 10+ cocoa programmers at the
drop of a hat.  and this should be true at least for all the big
centers of work, not just silicon valley.
