Hi. I have one question as a stupid user: why there is no commercial Mac

because there are? TestPlant and Cenon come to my mind.
Generally, if you code with some care, porting is very easy, I have
several aps which are cross-platform. However "GNUstep" is not a defined
target.
Most people will think of using GNUstep as a means to port a Mac app to
Windows since that is the real target and a stable target (where also
the concept of "binary" has a complete sense).
Linux, *BSD, Solaris... a big mess, don't you think? A maze...
GNUstep has its shortcomings, but I think that generally Linux is not
such a well-defined and interesting target for many applications. Sadly
perhaps, but it is reality.
