Well, CoreAnimation is still too new (as in unreleased). However,
from the looks of it, CoreAnimation could, quite literally, change
everything.
I'd hold off investing too much time in any programming projects just
now because I think that anything that is not bleeding edge is going
to look ANCIENT by October.
I'm thinking that CoreAnimation might be the key to a whole host of
abandoned ideas. For one, the look of Time Machine gives me hope
that we may finally get 'piles' and a 3D interface to the file
system. Maybe not in Leopard, but it sure seems possible.
