I agree, but I think you forget: Users don't want development, they  
want it to work. Now. In order to be adopted by Users, GNUstep needs  
to have a stable API and infrequent (every 6+ months?) jumbo  
releases. The stable API is so that developers need not know a damn  
thing about GNUstep (the environment) in order to code for GNUstep/ 
OpenStep (the API).
