Nope, because (A) It's not an official FSF project (yet, anyways), and (B) 
it's not even an official (IE GNUstep-sanctioned) project. This is by 
design. It's mainly due to political reasons and the screaming hordes of 
GNUstep users who might cut off my willy if I do something they don't 
like :). If you or ANYONE is interested in helping out, I urge you to 
contact me privately via e-mail.

Too politically charged. Not at this time.

The reason you didn't know about it is because I've just started it, and 
wasn't planning on announcing it until a later date, but as this 
discussion came up I felt it was timely and worth letting people know 
about.
