 Here are a couple of tasks that would help EiffelVision Cocoa to a more mature level.
-== Memory management ==
+=== Memory management ===
 We need to make sure the Objective-C objects are properly retained and released on creation and destruction of the dual Eiffel object. We also have to make sure there is never more than one dual Eiffel object for an Objective-C object. (This is currently the case)
 Most of the code for the first part is in NS_OBJECT - for the second part some adjustments in the way the descendants of NS_OBJECT implement queries is needed.
-== SmartDocking library ==
+=== SmartDocking library ===
 The SmartDocking library is used by EiffelStudio and at the moment we only have a very basic Cocoa based implementation. Improving this implementation would help the EiffelStudio experience on Mac OS X a lot.
