:-) There are multiple libFoundation projects, of which two I think are active...there's one which was started by OpenDarwin and AFAIK has
little implementation of the Foundation library yet. The other is a
fork of gnustep-base which was developed by Skyrix and is part of OpenGroupware.org.

The former OpenDarwin branch (now known as "Substrate") is a fork of the original libFoundation, which is not (and to my knowledge, never has been) a fork of the GNUstep Base library. The original libFoundation was written by Helge Hess, Mircea Oancea, and Ovidiu Predescu, and I don't know if it even contains GNUstep code.

That is right, libFoundation is not a fork of GNUstep Base, they've been developed in parallel. libFoundation was started my Ovidiu and Mircea and I added a few things later on. (the stuff used in Skyrix/OpenGroupware is libFoundation, not gnustep-base,
though we later switched to gnustep-base for SOGo).

P.S.: That is a late reply, isn't it? ;-)
