NeXTStep/OpenStep was designed for PostScript Display (which the major vendor's
X now have and are paying $$ to Adobe for it) and Mach. Both of those
requirements will be tough to fill in xxxBSD or Linux.
--mark.
PS. having a free OpenStep implementation will not solve the problem that
commerical programs written for it will not be given out in source form
and based on what is available today, I doubt will be compiled to run
Linux/FreeBSD.
