Re: GNUstep improvements bounty

[Adrian Robert]

I agree with Fabien's opinion (below).  People are always interested to 
work on new features -- it seems like the CoreData stuff for example is 
already well on its way even though Tiger's just out -- but it's the 
more thankless work like fixing bugs and filling in rarely-invoked 
implementations that most needs to be compensated to occur at all.
