You'll be able to run Objective-C based applications on Windows as long as they have the completed APIs for the bridge (the documentation shows a list of things not there yet). It's pretty neat! You won't be able to download an application directly off your iPhone and run it on Windows though (at least I don't think you'll be able to at any point) as you basically have to recompile using this tool.

In other words, this project is to CoreFoundation as winelib is to win32?

I think so but I haven't dug into it enough to say for certain. So I would defer to anyone else who's dug into it :)

They are also working on translating over Swift.
