OK, here's what I've been working on recently: NeXT Dock, 
a Cocoa application which brings the NEXTSTEP dock back 
(and bang up-to-date) on Mac OS X (Jaguar or later). 
Plenty of customization capabilities, but faithful to 
the NS dock's functionality and look-and-feel. I was 
going to construct some slogan around a "step 
back/step forward" sort of theme, but frankly that would 
be sickeningly corny. That's not to say that I won't do 
so later on, though.



Here are some work-in-progress screenshots, for your viewing pleasure.

Note that, naturally, any of the features seen in the 
screenshots above are subject to change in the final 
version. Additionally, cosmetic changes will doubtless 
occur before release (very likely including a better 
image-scaling algorithm for the dock tile app icons).
