It’s time for another installation of CocoaLinks. Interesting news from around the web over the past month. It’s been fairly quiet but we’ve found some juicy goodness to keep you busy.
First up, Clean up your app! No seriously, you don’t want to ship an application full of debug code and bloat. It’ll cost you money in bandwidth for distribution and waste your users precious hard drive space!
Another find that I haven’t yet had time to peruse is Standford’s online cocoa course. I’d love to hear a review at the next meeting so get reading!

Apple have uploaded the 2007 WWDC sessions to iTunes. For those with valid accounts you’ll find the links at Apple’s Developer Website.
Apple have updated their Leopard Technology Series for Developers to now include a section on OS Foundations. Worth checking out if you want to know more about the internals of Leopard.
Tim Burks, of RubyObjC and RubyCocoa fame has just released Nu Script.
Nu is a new programming language that binds the expressive power of Lisp to the pervasiveness and machine-level efficiency of C by building on the power and flexibility of Objective-C.
Something for anyone interested in scripting languages will surely be interested in.
Oh yea, and fake Steve got busted.
