  GNUstep - Everything is so ... square and gray. - They think we are retarded. They are retarded.
GNUstep (this is a Live CD, an OS, a distribution) contains a lot of software for GNUstep, a free implementation of the OPENSTEP framework (which was also the base as Cocoa in Mac OS X).

GNUstep features a cross-platform, object-oriented development environment based on and completely compatible with the OpenStep specification developed by NeXT (which has since been bought by Apple Computer).
GNUstep is modeled closely on OPENSTEP, and thus inherits some of the design principles proposed in OPENSTEP and are assisted by the use of the Objective-C language.

To sum up the experience, GNUstep found themselves in great fortune when NeXT was chosen by Apple as the foundation for Mac OS X. Steve Jobs took the great work started with the OpenStep API and called it Cocoa.
The next difference between GNUstep and Cocoa is that GNUstep has the goal and therefore the burden of matching 100% of the original OpenStep API.

 GNUstep Renaissance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
GNUstep Renaissance is a development framework that reads XML descriptions of graphical user interfaces from an application bundle and converts them into native widgets and connections at runtime under either GNUstep or Mac OS X.
GNUstep Renaissance was written by Nicola Pero as an alternative to the NIB and gmodel files used by Interface Builder and Gorm, respectively.
Unlike the aforementioned formats, Renaissance can generate interfaces that can be run without modification on either GNUstep or Mac OS X.
