I must agree with Adrian and Fabien. I discussed the matter on #irc too.

While I welcome the idea of attracting developers to complete and fix 
gnustep, I think starting from CoreData is the wrong place.
Since we have limited resources, it would be better to complete -back 
and -gui, to better portability and get some long-needed applications in 
the Gnustep "system". Those things are needed anyway.

To rephrase a metaphor Jeff T. said: If you have limited money and two 
flat tires in your car, your money may be not best spent buying new 
alloy wheels!
