Mailing lists

   It was a quiet week on the mailinglist. The most note worthy
   announcements were AppTalk 0.1.0 which makes it easy to integrate
   StepTalk scripting into applications and the announcement of a new
   user application GSFTP.
   
Code changes

   For gnustep-make Sir Roarn submitted a couple of patches to get the
   Documentaion where it needs to be, which Nicola happily applied.
   
   Nicola Pero had a little regression test patch for gnustep-base.
   
   While the non-gui part shows little changes, because of the maturity
   of the code, the GUI part is heavily worked on:
   Adam Fedor worked on NSView, and changed a lot of the .h files and
   made a new file the implements RINT defs.
   Ludovic Marcotte worked on NSMenuView to prevent segfaults.
   Nicola Pero applied a patch by Alexander Malmberg for NSScrolleri,
   worked on GSTable, GSTextStorage and had his hands all over the place
   just to make gnustep-gui compile faster.
   
   And ofcourse there was work done on our gnustep-back:
   Adam Fedor reenabled XIM by default, worked on GSStreamContext,
   XGContext, XGGState and XGServerWindow
   Richard Frith-Macdonald fixed a bug in gpbs for -NSHost
   Nicola Pero added some missing includes

   This is a new section in the editorial. From now on I will put in this
   sectrion the changes and updates of the official GNUstep applications.

   Happy Stepping,
