No. Just looking at classes:

  http://componentkit.org/appledoc/html/index.html

it seems to be an approach orthogonal to UIKit. 

Anyway, it seems to use Core Animation, which is what we actually need for any sort of UIKit, which we may finally have functional this year (fingers crossed GSoC proposal gets in before deadline tomorrow, and that it gets accepted, and that the student I found works on the project the way I hope he will).

That reminds me, I should ask him to subscribe to the mailing lists and introduce himself...

Is this http://componentkit.org/ of any mater for us? Would it help us to get an UIKit clone ready?

It emphasizes a one-way data flow from immutable models to immutable components that describe how views should be configured. It does the heavy lifting of building a view hierarchy from this description.
