Hi onionmixer,

from the 0.3.3 README:

Quote from: undefinedRelease 0.3.3, 6.9.1997 by Tomi Engel
...
This application tries to imitate the workspace feeling that was proposed for OpenStep/MachOS 4.0 at ObjectWorld '95. I liked the idea so much that I sat down and hacked the first verion of this small app the night after I returned from the USA.
Two years after the NeXTSTEP version has seen the light of day, I rewrote the application for the OpenStep API in an three day, four nights move. So...

Beware:
...this is just a "fun prototype" app which turned out to be quite useful. But don't expect it to be a full featured hyper cool shelf. There are many things which are still missing.

Note:
In order to run this application you need OPENSTEP 4.x  (only tested on 4.2) and must have MiscKit 2.0.4 and IconKit 4.2.1 installed (or a later version). Both frameworks are not part of this distribution. The application should compile on Windows NT and Rhapsody DR1 too...but it was not yet tested on these platforms.
Please read the release notes since compiling MiscKit 2.0.4 is tricky.

You can find the binaries e.g. on Peanuts CD

Interesting as this interface is also present in the prototype of NeXTStep 4.1 aka Mecca
