Re: Is Windowmaker an active project?

Gnustep is not windowmaker, however it uses NeXT stype widget API's
for handling widgetry. I really linked to the wrong site since it
gave a few people confusion. NeXT wouldn't be NeXT if it weren't
confusing :)

Check out the gnustep workspace manager 'application' that uses
Gnustep and is a full X11 window manager. Debian/Ubuntu has this to
say on the matter.
