Actually a lot of “high-level” user-end utilities are indeed not GNU… now even
more so as Gnome is not anymore (and doesn’t want to be associated to) GNU.
An unfortunate thing is that GNU project lacks indeed any full-featured
server. There are some minimal servers in inetutils and mailutils, there are
stuff like MyServer… But not much really that good or known in the end.
Furthermore, most of really high-level GNU software are something quite
essential but “hidden” in computing: languages implementation (essentially
lisp, but also ed, sed, awk, bison, make, smalltalk, gs, prolog, mhtml, forth,
gnash, eiffel, etc.), and package managers (stow, swbis, source-install, gsrc,
guix, etc.) which most non-developer users won’t know about (and developers
won’t necessarily think about it’s GNU).
