This is one of the hot issues in NeXT third party developer land.

There is a concerted effort to describe the advantages to NeXT and to
product developers about supporting (in some fashion that works) the
availability of the run-time stuff and development tools NeXT has developed
on other platforms. By development tools I don't mean AppKit and
Interface Builder (someday, maybe) but the necessary linking and format
stuff.

Please, if you have something to add beyond porting of apps, expanded
market, and such then email your most cogent arguement or post it. It will
get into the best channels for trying to make this happen.
