This is version 0.3.2 of ProjectCenter.

What is ProjectCenter?
======================

    ProjectCenter is a clone of the NeXTstep `Project Builder' 
application for
GNUstep.

Noteworthy changes in version `0.3.2' snapshot.
===============================================

    Lots of improvements and bug fixes, mostly due to the hard work of 
many GNUstep contributors and new support for Renaissance projects. 
Thanks guys!

How can I get support for this software?
========================================

    You may wish to use the GNUstep discussion mailing list for general
questions and discussion.  Look at the GNUstep Web Pages for more
information regarding GNUstep resources <http://www.gnustep.org/>

Where can you get it?  How can you compile it?
==============================================

    You can download sources from

ANN: GNUstep Make/Base Release 1.6.0

The GNUstep Makefile Package version 1.6.0 is now available.

What is the GNUstep makefile package?
=====================================

    The makefile package is a simple, powerful and extensible way to
write makefiles for a GNUstep-based project.  It allows the user to
write a project without having to deal with the complex issues
associated with configuration, building, installation, and packaging.
It also allows the user to easily create cross-compiled binaries.

    Note that versions that have a odd minor release number (the second
number, y, in x.y.z) are unstable releases (like 1.5.2), which even
minor release numbers (1.4.1) are stable releases.

Changes in version `1.6.0'
==========================

    Make now configures by default for only one system. To compile and
run GNUstep for multiple platforms from the same directory, use the
configure argument -enable-multi-platform.

    * Auto-build def file for DLLs

    * Work natively on MacOSX systems. Now use apple-apple-apple instead
      of nx-nx-nx on OSX systems.

    * More efficient checks for re-making a project.

ANN: GNUstep gui/back version 0.8.5

This is version 0.8.5 of the GNUstep GUI library (`gnustep-gui').

What is the GNUstep GUI Library?
================================

    It is a library of graphical user interface classes written
completely in the Objective-C language; the classes are based upon the
OpenStep specification as release by NeXT Software, Inc.  The library
has been enhanced in a number of ways to take advantage of the GNU
system.  These classes include graphical objects such as buttons, text
fields, popup lists, browser lists, and windows; there are also many
associated classes for handling events, colors, fonts, pasteboards and
images.

    The GNUstep GUI Library is designed in two parts.  The first part is
the front-end component which is independent of platform and display
system.  This front-end is combined with a back-end component which
handles all of the display system dependent such as specific calls to
X/Windows.  This design allows the GNUstep applications to have the
"look and feel" of the underlying display system without any changes to
the application, and the library can be easily ported to other display
systems.

    The GNUstep GUI Library requires the GNU Objective-C compiler, the
GNUstep Base Library, the TIFF Graphics library, and a back-end
component like the GNUstep 'Back' Backend.
