Is it ego, or what? Why, as a lurker, do I constantly read about 
developers doing 4 to 6 different versions of almost the same thing? Are 
GNUstep developers allergic to collaboration? Why is it that nobody 
seems to agree on anything, or at least seems unwilling to discuss 
issues and come to a consensus?

I have no vested interest in the answers to these questions, I just 
think they should be asked, after lurking for the better part of a year 
on these lists.

To an outside observer, the project, and developers, seem very 
disorganized and unfocused.

I'm not trying to stir up trouble, or piss hordes of people off, I am 
just offering a cold, cynical view, in the hopes that I am wrong, or 
simply provoke thought on the part of others who are developers or 
lurkers on the list.
