Hi all,

There has been some discussion about which version of autotools to use 
for bootstrapping

3.1.2 was bootstrapped with automake 1.9.6 and autoconf 2.59

3.1.4 was bootstrapped with automake 1.9.2 and autoconf 2.59

Some people test an alternative tarball bootstrapped with 1.10.1 and 
autoconf 2.61

3.1.5 has been bootstrapped with automake 1.10.1 and autoconf 2.61 and 
is the same code as 3.1.4, just a different bootstrap

There are a few questions now:

a) is it preferred that we release 3.1.4 or that we release 3.1.5, or a 
third option, roll a 3.1.6 tarball using the same environment where 
3.1.2 was bootstrapped?

b) should the choice of bootstrap environment be locked for all 3.1.X, 
and only changed when increasing the minor version number (e.g. when we 
go from 3.1 to 3.2)?

c) what environment should be used to bootstrap 3.2.X/trunk?

d) Can anyone volunteer to provide a stable bootstrap environment (e.g. 
a virtual server) just for Ganglia?  Two such environments may be 
needed, one for trunk and one for the current release branch.

Regards,

Daniel
