No, it hasn’t. I just wanted to state my view on what it is.

Usually any project benefits from individuals who roll up their sleeves to do 
something.
And from a team which brings in mass and quality through taking different roles.

So someone (one = 1) must take the initiative.

If you like to study an Obj-C Interpreter that is starting to do useful things:

https://github.com/goldelico/mySTEP/tree/master/ObjC

It is designed as a pipeline:

preprocessor - lexer - parser - abstract syntax tree - tree rewriting modules - 
code output module/tree interpreter

Originally it started with the vision of a translator from Obj-C 2 to Obj-C 1 
but turned its focus a little. To make

chmod +x file.m
./file.m

do something reasonable.

Nikolaus
