Awesome. Moves like this will encourage even more developer support. This is the right approach to take. It's pretty incredible where Apple was a few years ago, compared to where they are now, when it comes to developers.
I've been using a Menu Bar-based RSS app for many years. It not what I would call a great app in terms of the developers' abilities but it's exactly the type of un-intrusive yet always in view RSS app that I want.
What do you think is released for Objective-C in LLVM/Clang? They need to incubate this within the community for standards and get it prime time seeing as they plan on making it the defacto for OS X and iOS. LLVM/Clang ObjC isn't the GNU ObjC Runtime.
If they give the community too much leverage, it will become a mess like Javascript as it goes form being elegant to "this isn't C++ enough, let's make it harder to use so no newbies will not want to use it" that has happened to Javascript, Perl, and PHP
I prefer C, there's nothing terribly wrong with OBJC, or C++, but I find there is a lot of "OOP for the sake of OOP" and not OOP because it makes sense in many projects. This is why you see frameworks layered upon frameworks, because nobody likes how anyone else codes, so they wrap the frameworks they are using first with their own preferred style.
Hell I've seen this happen to my own code multiple times, which is why I don't care too much for politically charged(eg GPL) open source projects.
Right now it looks like the bird is crashing down.
It'd be better to make it fly up from the bottom left to the up right corner.
I think the reason that the swift is pictures as flying downward is because it hunts insects from above.
Swifts are the most aerial of birds. Larger species are amongst the fastest fliers in the animal kingdom, with the white-throated needletail having been reported flying at up to 169 km/h (105 mph).[6] Even the common swift can cruise at a maximum speed of 31 metres per second (112 km/h, 70 mph). In a single year the common swift can cover at least 200,000 km.[7]

Oh that's pretty nice, thanks for that.
Ohh... you're showing you age with that one, Tom said revealingly...
Apple should modify the Swift bird app logo.

That's what I said to myself a second after they revealed the logo. Design is nice, but orientation seems wrong.
Hey guys... birds fly up and down.
Maybe the bird is swooping down to catch some prey... swiftly.
