Both have been discussed to death on the mailing lists and at dev meetings over the years. The consensus to both is 'yes'. The web site is dire and UIKit is increasingly important. Now that we've done the easy bit, the question is who is going to do the update. The FSF said when we asked them to fund development that they don't do that, they're an advocacy organisation, so maybe we should ask them for help with the web site, as that definitely falls under the umbrella of advocacy. On the UIKit side... patches welcome. As with anything else in open source, you need someone who needs the code and decides it's cheaper to improve an open source project than do it all in house. We have lots of consumers of Foundation for whom that is true, but very few consumers of AppKit and none of UIKit. If you can find some, then we can start coordinating improvements.
