The slogan isn't meant to work on it's own, of course it need to be  
backed by an appropriate website and most important good code in  
GNUstep. If all this isn't there you can take whatever slogan you  
want - it wouldn't improve anything. But given the fact that -  
despite the great API - nearly nobody knows about GNUstep or worse -  
confuses it with WindowMaker (mainly because WM uses a similar logo  
and creates a GNUstep directory) a good slogan might work at the  
first - maybe very cursory - contact to GNUstep. A good slogan leaves  
the visitor with at least a rough idea what GNUstep is all about.
