Thank you, Dan. My silly overengineering with r8168 driver has
been sorted out, and here are the images built on stable branch
in addition to the ever-changing Sisyphus based ones:
http://en.altlinux.org/Starterkits/gnustep
Translation of the opennet.ru announce in Russian:
---
Updated experimental builds of ALT Linux starterkits with GNUstep
and Window Maker are available. These have been created to help
those interested in having a look at this unusual environment
having its roots within NeXTSTEP system and being related to
OSX/iOS, and to provide those willing to install such an
operating system with installable media (e.g. to tinker with
porting ObjC code to Linux).
These are hybrid LiveCDs for 32/64-bit x86 PCs with BIOS or UEFI;
ISO images are suitable for optical media or USB flash (use dd).
256M RAM or more recommended.
SysVinit and systemd-based images built upon t7 branch repository
supported by ALT Linux Team along with company-supported Platform 7
one are provided; mkimage-profiles and mkimage tools ensure easy
switch between these "building blocks" and easy derivatives.

Reactions were varying from "gorgeous!" to "you won't setup
an office girl with this" to "you won't sell it unless it's slick
and pretty out-of-box" (as if I was selling these images in the
first place, heh).
Maybe some sort of user experience "bootstrap" is due, any kind
of advice including "how could you miss the $URL" is much welcome
(I'm a seasoned WM user but rather newbie to GS).
