Regarding the article, I think we need:
- a part about OpenStep, history, etc.
My edit of Dennis's work is below.
- GNUstep's history (with emphasis on the recent progresses,
obviously..)
What are the most significant recent progresses? Not currently hacking
on it, I have trouble telling, as not much is on info-gnustep
recently.
- Presentation of GNUstep possibilities
This looks a large topic.
10 - the magic number
=====================
Today, the OpenStep API celebrates its 10th anniversary. It started
out as a joint adventure of NeXT and SUN to define an application
development standard that would run on all machines, making "write
once compile everywhere" a reality and OpenStep is still a vivid and
active community of GNUstep, old NeXT and Apple lovers.
The magic 10 appears in GNUstep's current 1.10.x and Apple's MacOS X
release numbers. Currently, people can develop their programs on Mac
OS, Linux, the BSDs, Solaris, and (with a couple of hurdles) even on
Windows. This solid and well-defined standard is reaching out to the
world of software development, slowly but surely.
Program your applications in a couple of hours instead of days, weeks
or never. Use the advanced API of a development framework that didn't
need much modification for 10 years, because it rocks, is stable and
just works.
