I also agree, however, that the project is not clear about the "other stuff".  For example, GNUstep includes GWorkspace and System Preferences as officially supported packages, but these are desktop applications.  It also includes things like EC, Performance, GDL, etc in the official repository which, despite being useful frameworks, go beyond the stated goal.  Like it or not, these sub-projects add to the confusion.

Unfortunately, that's really not good enough.   People don't want to browse our rather screwed up SVN repositories in order to get an idea of what GNUstep is about.  Browsing the repos is the last step to this process, not the first. 

I deleted the rest of this message because this first statement of yours is a complete and total nonstarter which makes discussing any further points put forth unnecessary.
