+GNUstep Renaissance is a development framework which runs on top of the
+GNUstep libraries. It also works on top of the Apple OSX Cocoa libraries,
+providing an opaque layer to write portable applications.
+
+ In short, GNUstep Renaissance allows you to describe your user
+interfaces (that is, the windows in your application, and the buttons,
+boxes, textfields, etc in the windows) in simple and intuitive XML files,
+using an open, standard format describing the logic of the interface.
+GNUstep Renaissance can then, at run time, generate the user interfaces
+(using the native host OpenStep-like libraries) by reading the XML files.
+The connections between the objects created from the XML files, and the
+other objects in the application are done via outlets (as traditionally in
+OpenStep); a new quick and intuitive syntax has been developed to make
+creating outlets as easy as possible.
