GNOME _has_ a window manager, was that Sawmill/Sawfish at the time? WMaker was suggested to be the official GNOME WM by the GNU-GNU policy, it was that that was really make no sense. WINGs was made to compete in some areas that GNUstep wasnt ready for at the time. I am not going to lecture you for the history so please try not to parse thing so literally just to made some pointless opinion!
