Gregory Casamento,

Thanks a lot for your valuable replay, appreciated. I will definitely send an email to address@hidden, but before that i have a few questions. I will be grateful to you if you will answer them.

1) Who will assign tasks?
2) What will be the time lines (or dead lines)?

Thanks and regards,
Umesh

Umesh,

As long as that notice remains up in the GNU website, we're still looking. :) 

 
As a GNU project, it is recommended for each member to sign an assignment to the FSF (since the project is owned by them).   You need to send an email to address@hidden requesting an assignment for GNUstep.

GNUstep currently needs work on the following areas:

Full Cocoa (not Carbon) Compatibility
Full Objective-C++ 2.0 Support
Garbage collection
RAD IDE (ProjectCenter is nearing completion, but needs work)
Full WebKit support
Full Linux, BSD, Windows and Mac OS portability
Themed and native (?) GUI widget support
(Certain Core* libraries, distinguished from Apple's)
OPENSTEP and Xcode Migration scripts

GNUstep is fairly complete at this point, but it does need the things mentioned above.   So there's plenty of work to dive into.

Later, GC

Hi,

 

On the main GNU website (http://www.gnu.org/), I show “GNUstep Developers Wanted”. Are you still looking for developers? If yes may I know what are the requirements (Technical, terms, conditions, etc.) for the contribution to the GNUstep project. I would like to contribute to the project.

 

Thanks and regards,

Umesh
