I think that it's really time now to show the user oriented parts of 
GNUstep.

- What about making an install party during which we help people get 
GNUstep installed and set up? Maybe hand out some CDRs?
(And if someone has a fast laptop, demonstrate the entire building 
process - which is extremly short and fast compared to the likes of KDE)

- Or some (simple?) user related demonstrations? I.e. drag'n'drop 
installation of (pre-compiled) Applications or Frameworks.

- Or showing some GNUstep applications more in depth -- GNUMail.app 
comes to mind.

I don't have a laptop (and if I had, it would be a Mac anyway), so I 
most likely cannot do any presentation. However, if we have a 
presentation box there, I'd be more than willing to help out.
Also I'm available for the install party or other user support, as well 
as making a bundle of CDRs, printing flyers, etc.
