GNUstep on Hackernews

[Liam Proven]

This discussion contains some useful points. There may be stuff here
that should be addressed right on the homepage.

Étoilé is there too. I wonder if this is because I mentioned both in my article?

As I have said more than once before, IMHO, the GNUstep project
*really* _NEEDS_ a version of a mainstream distro based on the desktop
environment, as a showcase.

NEXTspace hasn't released any binaries or an ISO yet as far as I know.
It needs that. Ordinary Linux users are not going to compile their
own.

The HelloSystem evaluated it and discarded it, and the GNUstep project
missed a _huge_ opportunity there. That made me very sad.

Hello is getting some attention. I managed to get a recent build to
boot on hardware on one of my machines recently for the first time (I
tried 0.5 & 0.6 with no success except in a VM) and while it's still
very basic, it is there, it works, you can use it, and people are
trying it.
