 RMS has offered to put something on the gnu.org home page about
 GNUstep.  Any ideas what we should say or ask for? I had mentioned that
 we are trying to organize a desktop.

Honestly, I'd ask him to save the offer for maybe another few years. 
Advertising for something that doesn't exist and has a strong chance of not 
existing is stupid, and will only sour relations with potential users.

Re: Debug as default...

 All,

 Andy Ruder suggested this and I agree with it.  I believe that we should
 make building with debug symbols the default in GNUstep.  This would allow
 distros to strip them, if they want, but would allow people who are
 building from source to be able to provide backtraces without having to do
 anything special.

 If you really want a stripped version, you could simply say make
 stripped=yes or something like that to get a version compiled without
 debug and with optimization turned on.

 I'm mentioning this again in order to start a discussion on the pros/cons
 of doing this.

Would this extend to outside applications?
