Documentation and methods to support other languages in IB is 
something that has been promised by Apple on the macosx-dev list. 

I don't know if it's just a matter of documenting how they added
Java runtime support, or if they need to generalize those API's
before documenting them. 

I've downloaded the last developer update, but most of the
NSNibConnector docs are still "Description forthcoming" . 
( There are some docs on the NSNibAwakening protocol. )
