Mark, allow me to mention that GCC offers the only free Objective-C compiler with modern features 
(like Categories and Exceptions) and is as such the only free Objective-C Compiler available to the 
GNUstep ( http://www.gnustep.org/ ) and swarm ( http://www.swarm.org/ ) folks (The other free 
Objective-C Compiler is POC ( http://users.pandora.be/stes/compiler.html ) which has the problem 
that it's Maintainer David Stes is constantly fighting any additions which would make POC useful for 
other stuff than it's own small class library).

Whoever decides what the release criteria are should put that into consideration. 

regards, Lars
