Subject: GNUstep desktop?
In the LWN issue of December 13th I found a mentioning of GNUstep and a
link to the GNU page where RMS recommends the GNUstep live CD:
http://www.gnu.org/links/links.html#FreeGNULinuxDistributions
It surely i
used by RMS may not go well with all GNUstep
developers:
"GNUstep, a GNU/Linux distribution using the GNUStep desktop. Its
initial purpose was to serve as a free implementation of the OpenStep
framework."
RMS himself is taking great care that everybody else in the world is
using the term

One of the things which has begun to worry me recently is the fact that
WindowMaker seems to be becomming a bit of a dead end. It's our "official"
window manager isn't it ? Yet it still doesnt work right in
e of the steps we need to take towards
doing this is the creation of another project which will be the
official GNUstep desktop.
Up until now we've had 4 or 5 projects playing at being the
official desktop in an effort to fill the void.

Yepp. And looking at NeXTbuntu and MidnightBSD, even full OS releases
appear to be in fashion right now.

s Greg points out, GNUstep CAN be both, but as Saso indicates,
GNUstep is first and foremost a development framework.
However, the above has some merit -- why not 'split' GNUstep in two

a) GNUstep Core -- the development
"official" desktop be something
like GTK+ or Qt are to all DEs built on it - they are foundations of
them, but is also usable to build stand-alone apps.
I agree. Other reasons are that you'd need to reach an agreement about
what exactly this yet-another-gnustep-desktop project would be
doing this is the
creation of another project which will be the official GNUstep desktop.
Up until now we've had 4 or 5 projects playing at being the official
desktop in an effort to fill the void.
I believe that all of this is senseless duplication and that what we
need is a *coordi
ctive GNUstep desktop environment. We need to focus on what will make an exciting and easy experience for both users and developers. Whether it is done in the same
repository as GNUstep or in a separate one, that's up for debug.Does anyone have any thoughts or ideas on the above?Thanks, GJ
