Hi
I know from Gregory Casamento and friends of him he could
write a text processing software like OpenWrite [1] within
one to three months, which'd require fixing bugs in GNUstep
and paying like $4000/month.
They also could write some spreadsheet calculator like
Quantrix [2]. Really a pity that SUN.com doesn't release
anything from the Lighthouse Design Applications [4] they have.
The same could be done for the icon drawing [3].
What about asking the following foundation for funding of these
projects which would take GNUstep steps ahead by adding
killer software AND fixing stuff in the frameworks?
