If they wanted an Objective-C web framework it seems like they would have been better off improving GNUstep Web. From looking at the site I don't see what makes this special other than using Cocoa. It might have some compelling features that GNUstep Web doesn't, but they don't make it easy to find out what they are.

Running on Mac OS X with the newer, shinier ObjC 2.0 runtime is greatly preferred to running on GNUstep. Not to mention GCD or Core Data (GNUstep Core Data is primitive in comparison. Not to mention, you know, basically a dead project).

Of course, I'm more likely to just use Ruby or Cappuccino if I need to make something more complicated than a basic website. But I can see the appeal in this sort of framework.

Running on Mac OS X is a pretty tough sell, though. Ultimately, it's far more expensive than comparable servers running Linux or even Windows. Most of this is that there aren't many people offering OS X based server solutions, but even if you're willing to run your own hardware, Xserves are on the expensive side of things.
