Not owning a Mac is one of the two realistic reasons for not using Quartz.
The other is mine: my Macs are too old to run OS X (all are pre-G3, with not enough RAM).
If I *did* have access to OS X, I would love to get native bindings to do Mac GUI programming with Pascal. Particularly with Aqua on the scene...
Right now, most of my GUI programming is limited to Java, which is much better than C. After looking at Apple's docs, though, Carbon doesn't look too bad, and the native speeds, with a Pascal environment...
It should not be difficult to write headers for Quartz, and for other Carbon features. It should just be a matter of writing unit interfaces, and figuring out which libraries to {$L} in them.

Anybody on the list with serious plans to use Quartz with GPC ?
No, but it would be interesting to use GRX (http://www.gnu.de/software/grx/) and SDL (http://www.libsdl.org/, http://www.gnu-pascal.de/contrib/eike/) with MacOS and GPC.
Actually, I do not own a Mac, so I cannot help.
