Hi Gregory,
Thank your for the link.
I discovered the - (BOOL)applicationShouldTerminate:(id)sender
that can be implemented into the NSApp's delegate.

In this method, I am able to release my custom view. This works.

My interface has one button, one custom view, the main menu; I guess I
don't have to release the main Menu and the button manually, am I right
?

Then, the only object left is the NSApp's delegate itself. It is
instanciated it Gorm and set as the App's delegate in Gorm as well. How
can I properly release this delegate ?

For the moment, I implemented this as follows...
is that correct ?

// Application's delegate implementation :

// The Log can be seen when I quit the App, cool :-)
- (void)dealloc
{
    NSLog(@"Fairing Manager is deallocating...");
    [view release]; // view is my Custom NVOpenGLView
    [super dealloc];
}

- (NSApplicationTerminateReply)applicationShouldTerminate:(id)sender
{
    [self release];
    return NSTerminateNow;
}
