The wxCocoa project is really going strong now. The team at Brookes are really doing well, we have squashed plenty of bugs and we are on track for getting wxWidgets for Cocoa functional for use in professional (proprietary and open source) software by this Summer!
How cool is that!!!!
However, one thing disappoints me about the project, it promotes the use of C++ over Objective-C… and because of this project I have found a love for Objective-C. I would not want to see Objective-C disappear because of C++. So, I would like to say the following:
Do look into using wxWidgets, it is a great library very useful for cross-platform development. It has strong base for developing user apps in C++ and in Python, and some other languages can be used with it too (Ruby and Haskell come into mind).
But if you want to program in Objective-C, but you want the application to work cross-platform… then have a look at GNUStep. It has a similar history as Apple Cocoa, and is so similar that you can write programs using objective-c and compile them using both GNUStep and Cocoa. But using GNUStep you get Cross-Platform ability.
