Adam,

First and foremost, thank you for doing this.  It is much easier to keep
track of what is going on this way than by using a zip/tgz archive.  I had
discussed with Jonathan the possibility of a project to get eggplant onto
the latest of GNUstep which has advanced significantly beyond the branch
you guys are using (except of course for any enhancements you guys have
added).  I will ping him separately about that.

Fred, the version I sent to you is the latest that was located on the
eggplant.io website, so it should be up to date as far as I know.
Hopefully there are no disruptive changes in anything your are merging.

Also, I agree with Fred, Marcian's work on the XIB changes are excellent,
well done, and highly appreciated.

Yours, GC
