I just read the article in English. I believe he removed the claim that GNUstep is not maintained because I don't see it in that version of the article. Still, we must get our website redesigned and updated so it gives a better impression.
On Thursday, August 8, 2013, Lars Sonchocky-Helldorf wrote:"GNUstep is abandoned" seems to be a common misconception. I read this today here: http://www.golem.de/news/darling-mac-os-x-anwendungen-unter-linux-1308-100858.html
The author of that piece (which is mostly a translation of http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/08/os-x-apps-run-on-linux-with-wine-like-emulator-for-mac-software/ ) added only this bit of "information": "Allerdings wird GNUStep kaum noch aktiv gepflegt." which translates to: "however, nowadays GNUstep is barely maintained". I wrote a mail to the author but didn't get a response up to now.
We definitely need to do something about our public reception.
cheers,
Lars
