he didn't just contribute to Étoilé, since he seems aware of it.
This is a hobby and passion project and yet it looks more alive and better maintained than Étoilé, which features "news" from 2014 about doing random Smalltalk things - and while I _love_ Smalltalk it doesn't give me confidence that they're focused on building a modern Cocoa-style desktop environment.
I clicked through a Étoilé's overview page, and the screenshots were from ~2008 (with a system UI panel opening showing a 2.6 kernel!). It made me question how alive the project is.
