Well, as a first time visitor (took the bait after seeing the 
recent article on MacObserver.com), I'm very intrigued. I haven't 
had time to download anything yet (final exams/degree looming).

I'm intrigued and very interested in getting involved (after 
exams). The thing that really interests me is the fact (or my 
impression rather) that GNUstep is modelled after NeXTSTEP, has not 
been bloated by all kinds of various factions, and therefore has 
the opportunity to build a very solid environment - so for me that 
means an opportunity to be involved.

But, this puts me outside the scope of the typical 'user' that you 
described...
So, I should be back asking questions next month.

with regards,
