Question: will Chrome use Carbon or Cocoa?

Two searches
http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-dev/search?group=chromium-dev&q=Carbon&qt_g=Search+this+group
http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-dev/search?group=chromium-dev&q=Cocoa&qt_g=Search+this+group
find a few references to Cocoa, none to Carbon, but from these few
alone I draw no conclusions.

Consideration 1: System Services (interapplication communciation)

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/SysServices/Concepts/architecture.html
presents System Services in the context (breadcrumb trail) of Cocoa.

> Mozilla Firefox and System Services: state of the union

is my own (non-developer) interpretation of support for System
Services in the Mozilla area. Abstracting what I learnt today:

a) it is _certain_ that Carbon applications can offer provider
services

b) I _assume_ (without certainty) that Carbon applications can offer
processor services.

It may be that processor and provider services are easier to develop
in Cocoa than in Carbon.

Separate threads concerning processor services and provider services
appear at
http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-dev/browse_thread/thread/0b6c8da4cfed6a17
and 
http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-dev/browse_thread/thread/9af8c14396ca1e42
respectively.
