What is the GNUstep Base Library?
=================================

   The GNUstep Base Library is a library of general-purpose,

for strings, object collections, byte streams, typed coders,
invocations, notifications, notification dispatchers, moments in time,
network ports, remote object messaging support (distributed objects),
and event loops.
