#2So this is sort of like Flex, but uses JavaScript modeled after Objective-C?
Edit: I'm checking out the demos... this is sick. Silverlight won't kill Flash/Flex, Cappuccino will.

#3I've seen a few posts about Objective-J, Cappuccino and 280slides. Very cool stuff, incredible work guys.
Unfortunately, I haven't really found any deep technical information about Objective-J or Cappuccino. I've read about the what and the why, but I'm really curious about the how. Anyone know of any resources?

Did you see this previous blog post? It talks a little about the "why":

What kind of technical information are you looking for? There are tutorials and documentation for learning how to use Objective-J and Cappuccino on the site.
If you're looking for details on how we built it, there best available information is the source code :). I don't believe we've published a lot of in depth material on specific technical developments, though if I had the time I think it would be a great thing to do.

That was the major "why" I saw.

"best available information is the source code"
That's what I was afraid of :-)
I'm not building a big serious web app, so I have no real reason to learn Cappuccino that deeply. I also have no end of curiosity, so I am explicitly avoiding downloading the source code for fear of the time sink that would cause.
I was hoping for a blog post or two detailing some of the techniques and machinery involved with creating the compile-free Objective-J constructs. It would also be really interesting to hear what sort of effort was required in porting Cocoa. I'm not looking for "talk to me like I'm a 3 year old". I'm looking for "here's the gist of it", hacker to hacker. From where I am sitting now Objective-J is a pretty freaking impressive magic trick. I'd just like a peek behind the curtain, but I don't really want to see the schematics.
I'm sure you guys are even busier than I am, but if you do get a spare moment, I'd really appreciate it if you shared. I think it would probably also drive adoption. If it seems like an impressive magic trick to me, it probably seems like evil black magic and sorcery to others.

#9hmmm... I tried the 280slides demo, it seems only for English. I can't type in Japanese and Chinese.

I found a lot of the copy on the site was geared toward people very familiar with javascript and js frameworks, and that a lot of assumptions were made about the skill level of your visitors.
I have been doing web app dev for quite a while now and never took time to learn javascript outside of using tutorials and jquery.
What are the requirements or good-to-knows before beginning to learn objective-j? Also, more tutorials on working with rails would be nice.
