FSF isnt intereted by making it more popular than making it more free. As we

Biggest challenge is when one has to delve into the dungeons of OS-
specific programming. Despite POSIX's existence, each platform has
slightly different ideas about how stuff works. An example that comes

I personally believe that 3 ways to bring GNUstep to the mass are..
1) Make a large but stupid company to adopt it and flood a lot of
money into it. Ha! one almost did too bad they suddenly realized they
shouldn't do that in first place, at least
Hi,
GNUstep has NSNetServices (Bonjour), but for sure there are things it does not
have. We welcome contributions to fill in any gaps. However, the fact that

GNUstep has its shortcomings, but I think that generally Linux is not
