Re: Request for update and/or release of GDL2 and Renaissance

[Riccardo Mottola]

Hi,

once again.. we go far off topic. We hijack a thread.
Sure, the original author started with  a bit of polemics and sarcasms,  
but well, then talked about Renaissance and GDL2.

<sarcasm>Our filesystem is just superior but quite different... People on  
one side want a mac-clone, then they want to beat it in a constricted  
layout. Oh. well.</sarcasm>

Anyway, I too dream of a more working SWK, otherwise I would have not  
spend time and money to meet up with Fred and Nikolaus. Supposedly, they  
wouldn't either. I just pinged Fred again :) he will hate me soon.
Fun, talk and excellent Hochschwarzwald-Bier count too :)

I also want to reliably send emails from GS, even witha  bit of HTML  
formatting. I also want reading RSS and openign URLs in the feeds as I can  
on Mac. I want to be able to unzip and untar files. I want... do draw  
GNUstep's own object logo in a GNUstep application (closer to at least  
goal than ever!!!)
