Yes, it was really delicious! So, we should subclass GSCake!

BTW: here is the patch for GSCake.h

@interface GSCake : GSObject
{
}

+ (NSArray *) ingredients;
+ (NSString *) recipe;
+ (GSCake *) newInstance;
- (BOOL) eatAndFindDelicious;    // always returns YES

@end

Mine was in the lost suitcase that did not make its was from Aalborg
to Zurich in time. So, I had to pick it up at Zurich airport on Sunday
- unfortunately AFTER AlpenStep.

Yes - it was really great GSFun, GSProgress, GSEatAndDrink.

We did have some group presentations:

* GNUstep/mySTEP on OpenMoko (myself)
* Etoile (Nicolas and Quentin)
* GAP (Riccardo)

and several bug fixing sessions in smaller groups.

The place was nice and the time as well - although being a little
nearer to a large airport with convenient and inexpensive connections
would also be good...

What I could imagine would be to have two such meetings per year. One
beginning of September and one end of March (well, we have to look for
Easter holidays and Skiing season conflicts).

And, we probably should try to start earlier, i.e. Friday evening and
having a full Saturday + some part of a Sunday, i.e. 2 nights for
hacking sessions.
