Re: Site revamp

Yes, that's correct.  Also GNUstep is spelled "GNUStep" on the page a number of times.  It should be changed to use the proper capitalization.

I'm wondering what happened.  Is it still possible for us to get this done?

Hello

I like the design. but the lime green is ugly. and it's _an_ open source toolkit (not, a), isn't it?
