We are going to drop our MPW compilers with CW 8 and go to the 
commandline compilers for both PEF and Mach-O in OS X  I think this will 
be great for everyone.  Basically we are looking for a simple 
substitution for GCC in a Makefile.

I think so but I don't know how many quirks there will be.

I don't know about plugins for Project builder, but if you can use 
interface builder and do Cocoa from CodeWarrior then... We'll see.
