I slightly revised my goals: instead of just wrapping the S3 REST API, I'm writing at the same time a small application to test my code - a minimal S3 GUI browser. I will then extract the objective-C S3 wrapper framework from this example, which I'll try to keep as simple and straightforward as possible (it's heavily bindings-based, there's no much code). S3 is cool, but my main objective was to have an idea of what it takes to wrap a REST API to build a desktop app on top of it. But if it could be useful to others as a basic S3 OS X sample code, it would be great.

What is more or less working right now: list, create and delete buckets, non-blocking, asynchronous operations, bucket content list (no multiple requests for large buckets yet), basic upload and download, and a small operation console and inspector. Check the screenshot.

Even if many features are missing (multi-requests, correct canonicalization, correctly tracking bucket content windows, transient URLs generation, etc), any feedback would be great (including 'it works on my Intel Mac' and 'it works with my account').

Update: this small experiment actually became a real application, check it out is here.
