That is the same approach of embedded GNUstep - not include  
everything historical or being too low level.

I am not really sure that he did say "Cocoa". But one slide clearly  
said "Core Animation".
They might now focus on WIdgets/Dashboard and that has nothing to do  
with Cocoa.
And, they might now define Core Animation + Widgets as the core of  
"OS X".
