Do they say why? "better" is a very subjective term to use. If it's because, from the engineering point of view, interfaces can be built in a similar fashion as physical ones then it makes sense to use that word. Could you please include the reason(s) they give for this? It would make the analysis of the articles much easier. > 2.

What exactly does it mean that it "beats" them, how? I'm guessing in interface building tools and API, since just about every one (Johnny Q. Newbie to G. I. Coder) agrees that QT has the best performance. But it's hard to compare them when they are very different: one is a freedomwware .Net replacement, the other two are GUI libs and the last two are languages. > I found if these reasons are valid, GNUStep should be the choice instead > of Mono.

While I support GNUstep, I fail to see why it should be preferred to it (other than personal taste). Now what strikes me as odd is the RMS attacking Mono, to my knowledge it's also a GNU project (please correct me if I'm mistaken). So I'd think that RMS might have attacked .Net or Microsoft instead of Mono. Still, it would be nice if he mentioned the project a bit more. Could you include some links to the articles so we can check them out? I didn't see anything of the sort on Linuxtoday recently and you've piqued my interest with this. > -- > Real Softservice > > Baiyan Building Unit 406B > Beisihuan Zhong Road No. 238 > > Tel: +86 (10) 8231 8580 > http://www.realss.com > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Discuss-gnustep mailing list > Discuss-gnustep@gnu.org > http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnustep > -- Besos, abrazos, confeti y aplausos.
