  I also have issues about it, and I haven't figure out how to do it
  in a decent way.

  I plan to have a flat header directory.
  Right now, it is just for porting 
  so that I can monitor the progress easily.
  Once I finish the porting and the headers are stable,
  I will put them into a flat directory.

  I do not understand what you mean here. :)

  Could you send a patch for this ?
  Now, I can only test with cocoa (don't have PC/Unix around).

  I do have problems with link and haven't have time to solve it.
  I believe there is an easy solution
  but I just don't have time to play around it yet. :)

  How do you put the test in the classes ?
  The classes are complied as library
  and the test are bundle.
  Do you have an example ?
  Do you mean puting the classes and test in the same 
  directory or in the same file ?

  It is about millisecond.
  Maybe there is a bug in GNUstep.
  It is not used by GNUstep though (there is no way to set millisecond).

  Probably after I port every classes and put the copyright in.
  I want to make sure I can finish it before putting into CVS.
  And I would like to have a stable directory structure (ex. flat
headers) before it goes into CVS.

  Have fun
