This already should have happened. Once you get a firm grasp of the Java Collections API, it's design, intention and power, NSArray and it's company will make you want to puke. I actually thought that WO would move in this direction by first making NSArray implement List, and do all the similar stuff, then depreciate Foundation collections, and the finally get rid of them. Well, maybe that still is the intention, but it sure is slow.
The lack of power sucks,

Can you elaborate on the lack of power?
Lack of power = I wanted LinkdHashMap, ConcurrentHashMap, LinkedList vs ArrayList, TreeMap, WeakHashMap ... So many other options. The NS collections are fundamentally flawed that they are concrete.

Things I love (not) about standard collections: can't instantiate the silly things with objects. No nsarray kvc ops...
Yep ...
