Do you seriously think people are using KDE or Gnome because they have nice 
slogans on their website? In my opinion people are using KDE and Gnome 
because they have really nice, well integrated applications like 
KMail/Kontact, Konqueror, Kate, k3b, Amarok, gimp, inkscape, evolution and so 
an. In my opinion Gnustep/Etoile just lacks good applications. There is not 
even a webbrowser. And there is absolutely no point to use Gnustep/Etoile 
with KDE/Gnome applications. From a user point of view it is (mostly) 
irrelevant if Gnustep is the best API out there or not. It's the applications 
that matter.
