At least please give a counter-thesis.
I think you should put those user stuffs in GAP's web page or whatever as
I don't see any good reason to promote some oh-please-put-my-apps-too-s
or the agenda to sell GNUstep as a whole desktop environment there.
Well that was just my impression anyway. Beside that, no app is cooler
than Gorm.
Let alone our other current apps as they won't get us to the mass (or tell me
one app that make a user want to install GNUstep for it)

Can wait. I didn't really expect any change though, just that it
doesn't make any sense
to me so I want to point that out in case that someone may agree and
do something about it.
