Its funny you bring this up now because we have been discussing it for
the past week or so in the swarm-hackers list on the Savannah system
(see the swarm web page for info). Scott Christley, one of the GNUstep
originators, seems to think we would have no trouble using GNUstep
classes and such, especially for GUI work.
I am just learning the meaning of the term "runtime" and I'm trying to
figure why Swarm has its own libobjc. I've compared the header files of
Swarm's libobjc files and the gcc-3.0.4 and the differences are minor.
I'm not able to access the swarm-hackers archive, possibly because I
don't know Savannah's system well enough.

Hi,
As this is my firts post to this list, let me introduce myself. I am a
student of Slovak University of Technology and as part of my thesis I am
going to write some king of multi-agent based simulation tool (virtual
laboratory). Besides other key features it has to be multi-platform and
easy to use and install by non-computer literate. I was considering
several options including Swarm and GNUstep. Swarm already has some
simulation classes I need, but I am missing some features that GNUstep
has. So I was thinking about combinig the two (Swarm and GNUstep).
I cannot install Swarm properely on my system, because it uses it's own
libobjc and I need to use the one included in latest GCC for GNUstep.
