Hello everyone, I used to be the one maintaining gnustep.github.io, but that is no longer true now that I have gotten more busy and my open-source software side projects have moved onto other topics. I'll take a look at these dead links, but I think it would be good if somebody else were willing to maintain the documentation and website. Even if not, it might be good to give some more people edit permissions (Gregory, please send your thoughts about this.) There are still many missing parts of the website, and it also needs to be kept up-to-date with new API references when new releases come out. (That reminds me, if anyone likes using the Conda packages it would be good if somebody could update the stable conda-package repository every time there's a release. Since it will also be useful for projects other than GNUstep, I will probably set up the unstable conda-package repository to publish new packages every night.)
