I don't have much experience in this field either, but here it says:
"It's easier from GNUstep to Cocoa than Cocoa to GNUstep. Cocoa is
constantly changing, much faster than GNUstep could hope to keep up.
They have added extensions and new classes that aren't available in
GNUstep yet. Plus there are some other issues."

As i understand the info on the gnustep site, it would be feasible
provided that sc doesn't use CoreFoundation, Quicktime (used I think...)
and other proprietary extensions..
It's kind of exciting - perhaps I will give it a try...
