# GNO-Related Web Links

The following links are also likely to be of interest to GNO users and programmers.

- The Describe Database Page. This is a database containing information on current GNO and ORCA/Shell utilities, including version numbers and from where they can be obtained.
- Procyon Enterprises Inc
- The Byte Works, creators of ORCA/C, ORCA/M, and other programming tools.
- Soenke Behrens' ORCA/C Bug List
- Leslie Barstow's GNO Utilities Page. (This is an sorted version of the describe(1) database.)
- FreeBSD ftp site list
- GS/TCP
- Marinetti
- Eric Shepherd's ToolBox Reference

The following links have a less direct relevance to GNO, but may still be useful:

- The Cathedral and the Bazaar by Eric S. Raymond. This paper discusses differences between two software engineering strategies: The traditional development / testing / release cycle and the high turn-around cycle typified by Linux and one of the author's own projects, fetchmail. This paper is valuable as "food for thought" for anyone considering working on GNO or any other large projects for the Apple II.

- The File System Hierarchy "standard". This is not a true standard in the ANSI/ISO sense, but still contains a lot of useful information. NOTE: GNO is based on 4.4BSD which does not, at this time, completely follow the suggested hierarchy. GNO sites should use the hierarchy specified in the FAQ.
