ANN: GNUstep Base 1.12.0

The GNUstep Base Library, version 1.12.0, is now available.

What is the GNUstep Base Library?
=================================

The GNUstep Base Library is a library of general-purpose, non-graphical
Objective C objects.  For example, it includes classes for strings,
object collections, byte streams, typed coders, invocations,
notifications, notification dispatchers, moments in time, network 
ports,
remote object messaging support (distributed objects), and event loops.

    It provides functionality that aims to implement the non-graphical
portion of the OpenStep standard (the Foundation library).

    There is more information available at the GNUstep homepage at
`http://www.gnustep.org'.

Noteworthy changes in version `1.12.0'
======================================

NOTE: The shared library version has changed in this release. You will 
need to recompile all Applications/Tools/etc in order to use this 
library (Applications will still work with the older library if you 
don't recompile).

There have been a number of API changes and several methods have been
depreciated in this release. Although current GNUstep programs that use
these methods will still work in this version, there are enough changes
that a new library version was considered useful. See the release notes

ANN: 1.1 release of webserver library


This release standardises some terminology and method names,
and improves handling of overload situations (where more connections
come in than your software wants to handle).  It also increases the
default connection limits in the server.

Scope
====
This library provides a single main WebServer class which works with a
framework to support the use of loadable bundles to handle requests
on particular URLs.
The main of the library is to make it easy for you to write programs
which can act as web servers (eg. and XMLRPC server) or simply provide
a web-based user interface so that your application can be controlled
from a web browser.
Incoming requests may by handled by a delegate, or passed to a bundle
loaded at runtime on the basis of the URL requested.
Convenience methods are provided to vend static pages or vend template
pages where values provided by your code are inserted into the  
templates.
The class supports HTTPS on a unix-like platform, but only HTTP on  
windows.

Platforms
=========
GNUstep gnu/linux
GNUstep	windows/mingw32

ANN: GNUstep GUI 0.10.3

This is version 0.10.3 of the GNUstep GUI library (`gnustep-gui').

1.1 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.

1.2 Noteworthy changes in version `0.10.3'
==========================================

    * Horizontal menus now work

ANN: GNUstep Back 0.10.3

This is version 0.10.3 of the GNUstep GUI Backend (`gnustep-back').

1.1 What is the GNUstep GUI Backend?
====================================

It is a back-end component for the GNUstep GUI Library.  The
implementation of 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 the X Window System.  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 Backend is for platforms using the X-Window System 
or
Window's Systems. It works via a DPS emulation engine to emulate the
DPS functions required by the front-end system.

1.2 Noteworthy changes in version `0.10.3'
==========================================

Fixes. A lot of Cairo backend work.

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

The gstep-back-0.10.3.tar.gz distribution file has been placed at

ANN: Startup 0.15.0

The GNUstep Startup Package, version 0.15.0 is now available.

What is the GNUstep Startup Package?
====================================

GNUstep Startup is a compilation of the following core GNUstep 
packages:
gnustep-make Version 1.12.0
gnustep-base Version 1.12.0
gnustep-gui Version 0.10.3
gnustep-back Version 0.10.3

The main advantage of Startup is that it includes a script to
automatically build and install the core GNUstep system.

After installing GNUstep Startup, you will have a complete system for
compiling and running GNUstep applications. You will, of course, need
to compile and install applications (such as GWorkspace) to actually
use GNUstep in a runtime system. For a complete developement system,
you would also need to install the Gorm and ProjectCenter
applications.

The installation scripts have been tested on:

GNU-Linux/PPC (YellowDog Linux 3.0)
Darwin/PPC 7.x
Solaris/SPARC 2.7
NetBSD/ix86
NetBSD/sparc64
Debian Unstable/ix86
