Given my Java hatred (perhaps irrational), and no real allegiance to iOS & Cocoa Touch (other than it works very well, and has paid off somewhat for our efforts), I wonder if it would make sense, long-term, to mount an OSS effort to build a truly wonderful dynamic language environment as an alternative to Dalvik?
E.g., something based on Javascript, with a fully dynamic remote IDE/editor (along the lines of SLIME)?
I guess then you'd run into the problem that the whole Dalvik UI scheme is so heavily intertwined with their Java-based toolkit (just as iOS is heavily dependent on Obj-C) that there's no real gain in the end?
