New gnustep soon stable, new windowmaker ebuild, NX news, ... (and other things I've already forgotten)

It looks like real life finally lets me write some news on Gentoo work

GNUstep news first: packages based on gnustep-make-2.0 are now almost all
marked stable (see the progress in this bugreport),
there's only sparc left and then I'll finish cleaning up the old ebuilds. In
the gnustep overlay, you can now find (masked) unstable gnustep and gorm
releases: lots of fixes, but requires lots of revdep-rebuild! 
Thanks to grobian and truedfx, you can now try windowmaker-0.92.0-r7, it has
some nice features to check out. This is still my WM of choice, even if I now
run gnome on the laptop (easy compiz switching, better power management
integration).
On the NX front, a nice Gentoo user has filled a few enhancement bugs on
freenx (startup script, utempter use, ...). I'm preparing a revbump integrating
most of these, stay tuned. I'm also preparing a revbump for the free edition
server, upstream has released a new version with many fixes (including some
that could help people using selinux). And last, if you have problems with
freenx, or freeedition server, there are two lengthy threads on the forums,
where you may get help from other users. The freenx thread is here, and the one for the free edition is here
And closing this post, I'd like to say a big "thank you for all the work you've done on Gentoo" to Roy Marples (uberlord), and Seemant Kulleen (uncle Seemant)
