I would like the text to emphasize the fact that we're going more for Cocoa now than for OpenStep. Although we will always be OpenStep compatible, for *marketing* purposes, we want to emphasize our strengths in the Cocoa arena.
Very savvy developers will understand that OpenStep is the predecessor of Cocoa... but, most will see the word OpenStep and assume "dead and static." I'm going to rewrite some of the text for these and, hopefully, we can update some of the images as well.

Greg was asking for SCALE in California at the end of the month... but I could update the 1-page brochure with the new design and some new text for FOSDEM next weekend, if someone would be willing to provide me with the new text.
