LOL!

However Objective-C is not C++ and is about as nice as C can get.
Apple's IDE is very nice and the Interface Builder is great. So if you
have to switch to developing for iPhone/iPad in Obj-C, don't despair.

But I am optimistic. I think RunRev will not have got this far with
revMobile without some serious discussions with Apple. If the
revMobile engine is written in one of the approved languages, then
maybe our stacks will be considered as data files, like plists or
databases.
