The Etoile team has published a progress update on the project. They are currently preparing the release of version 0.2 of the Etoile live CD, but on top of that, they are also busy developing new applications. A font manager, an alt+tab application switcher, hot corners, and more. "Étoilé intends to be an innovative GNUstep based user environnement built from the ground up on highly modular and light components with project and document orientation in mind."

It'll be good to have a full GNUStep based enviroment instead of bit and pieces thrown together on top of WindowMaker. I'm looking forward to it's contiuned growth.

While Window Maker is the recommended window manager for GNUstep, Etoile does have its own window manager, called Azalea (which is based on OpenBox, IIRC).
