Re: USB 2.0 or any .0 for that fact


GNUstep doesn't seem to be the right place for device drivers: GNUstep has to
work on *nix, Windows, and even OS X. All of those have different driver
APIs.

Or are you asking about writing drivers for NeXTSTEP? I don't think GNUstep
would be much help there either. You'd be better off [using a virtual
machine][1] to run NeXTSTEP-Intel or OPENSTEP.

ANN: GNUstep Base stable update 1.14.4

The GNUstep Base Library, version 1.14.4, is now available.

1.1 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'.

1.2 Noteworthy changes in version `1.14.4'
==========================================

Minor updates

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

The gnustep-base-1.14.4.tar.gz distribution file has been placed at
`ftp://ftp.gnustep.org/pub/gnustep/core'.

Please log bug reports on the GNUstep project page
`http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=gnustep' or send bug reports to

ANN: GNUstep Gui/Back stable update 0.12.2

This is version 0.12.2 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 `0.12.2'
==========================================

Minor updates.

ANN: GNUstep Make Version 2.0.6

The GNUstep Makefile Package version 2.0.6 is now available.

1.1 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.

1.2 Changes in version `2.0.6'
==============================

    * Fixed some spurious rebuilds of plists, and framework headers.

    * Added the -enable-absolute-install-paths option for Darwin  
systems.

    * Install GNUstep.conf in /etc/GNUstep/GNUstep.conf on all systems.

1.3 Obtaining gnustep-make
==========================

You can get the gstep-make-2.0.6.tar.gz distribution file at
`ftp://ftp.gnustep.org/pub/gnustep/core'

    Please log bug reports on the GNUstep project page
`http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=gnustep' or send bug reports to
<bug-gnustep <at> gnu.org>.
