Objective-J and this insane Cocoa worship? Are you serious? Try to understand that the desktop and web are two completely different things. I would not want a UI that's designed ground-up for the desktop on my web browser. It's just wrong. I haven't seen Cappuccino myself (I mean, who has?), but stuff like GWT is just broken. HTML/ CSS/ JS exist for a reason: they're simple, elegant, and products of many years of evolution. Sure, there are cross-browser problems, but we're getting tools to deal with them. Evolution doesn't happen by throwing away existing implementations out of the window, and starting with a fresh slate. Tiny incremental changes that preserve (atleast partially) backward compatibility always win. That is how software engineering (and engineering, in general) works. Sure, there are a lot of incompetent programmers with the span of a housefly in the world, and a lot of "web people" are people- what does this "general truth" have to do with anything? More importantly, why does it annoy you?
