    That's correct -- or actually the GNUstep "version" and the OS X one  
    are the same code, with a few ifdefs here and there.  The APIs  
    provided by GNUstep and Cocoa are almost identical (or at least  
    largely overlapping; please see http://gnustep.org for more  
    explanation)  The new port (emacs-app.sf.net) should always run, like  
    Emacs-on-Aqua, on GNUstep _and_ OS X.  (The "-on-Aqua" name is a  
    historical artifact that does not reflect the port's actual character.)

Could we please rename it, then?  Let's call it Emacs for GNUstep.
It is counterproductive to publicize Apple gratuitously.
