I like both, probably with a preference to the 2nd as I'm not so keen
as selling gnustep as a cocoa clone..

No, I think it's better than code intelligently as there's also the
"dressed smartly" which is the case with GNUstep, isn't it ?

yeah, and it's close to the java slogan... possibly  a bad association :D

GNUstep - code smartly
GNUstep - The greatest API you've never heard of!
GNUstep - code less, deploy everywhere
GNUstep - code intelligently
