+The Zillion Project is a distributed computing project reminiscent of the good
+old Zilla.app of NeXTstep days. It is based on GNUstep, the most promising
+OPENSTEP replacement as of today. Jobs can be created from simple template
+projects and can be submitted with a single command to the Zillion Server
+which in turn will distribute the job amongst the registered clients. No other
+network resources than the distributed objects (DO) port of the server machine
+has to be available. The key features are as follows:
+ * Rapid turn around cycles for job submission
+ * Dynamic addition/removal of client nodes
+ * Full OO-design
+ * No need for shared network resources
+ * Real-time capabilities
+ * Lean and clean
+ * Open and free
