Okay, fair enough. But why is it called Inventor.framework, not Coin.framework?

The rules for using frameworks include that the include paths must be <Frameworkname/myheader.h>. Since all Open Inventor includes are of the form #include <Inventor/xxx.h>, the framework has to be called Inventor.framework as well. (Otherwise, you would have to rewrite all your existing Open Inventor code to use <Coin/xxx.h> instead.
