GNUstep's name is meaningful to those of us who have been around for a while, but it, unfortunately, harkens back to a time which is long since dead. A name change might help, but then again it may have no effect at all. What is more effective is to change GNUstep's look so that it appeals to a wider audience, but that's just my opinion. > > -- > Pirmin Braun - IntarS Unternehmenssoftware GmbH - Am Hofbräuhaus 1 - 96450 > Coburg > +49 2642 40526292 +49 174 9747584 - skype:pirminb www.intars.de > [email protected] > Geschäftsführer: Pirmin Braun, Ralf Engelhardt Registergericht: > Amtsgericht Coburg HRB313 Gregory Casamento Open Logic Corporation, Principal Consultant yahoo/skype: greg_casamento, aol: gjcasa (240)274-9630 (Cell) http://www.gnustep.org http://heronsperch.blogspot.com
