Re: GNUstep and distributions...

[Chad Hardin]

I still think that what is really needed is our "own" distribution.  I 
go back and forth all the time on whether I should start working on 
simplyGNUstep again.  It's not an easy thing to do though, I have a 
hard enough time finding the energy to work on the printing stuff in 
GNUstep after work work and school take their drain on me.

Anyhow, I do think that a GNUstep distro with a solid development 
environment and some good apps would be very popular.  It might even be 
be the basis for a profitable business.
