It was made by the french Apple IIgs group 'Brutal Deluxe'. I'd been
messing with it, toying with the notion of translating it for everyone
non-French, but after investigating it and talking with BD, it became
apparent that it's mostly just GSOS 6.0.1 with some added Third-party
software and a full translation into French. Thusly, translating it into
English would mostly be re-inventing the wheel in a sense. If anyone out
there can name an actual bugfix or something though, I'm curious. AFAIK
the only fixes were to take out a few obsolete bits of stuff.
