Hi Folks I just tried to pull from git to retrieve a broken buildtool.mk, just to find out that the structures in lwp have changed completely. Needless to say that the work I did to clean this mess up is completely futile by now and I am quite frustrated.
I found that, in order to get rid of the lwp tarball all files are now neatly lined up in a flat structure, burdening the buildtool.mk and buildtool.cfg with structural work and redundany. In my eyes this is a horrible misconception possibly caused by a weakness in buildtool to handle directory structures or misunderstanding of buildtool directives. I feel that some things are done in an extremely hasty way just to get them done, not in the most comprehensive way. Maybe that is due the evoluationary nature of our development but I am sure this just leads to lone discovery expeditions to the software jungle. I would like to suggest to somehow restructure the development efforts in the project. We need to review and not just redo things. There should not be such a situation that work is done reduntantly and there should be a review of best practices to solve problems. I don't know how we can avoid such redundant work, but I am sure this does and will keep people from contributing. I have to readjust every few days to a complete new biosphere here and that is neither for the best development nor for the best quality of the software. We need to communicate what an individual developer is working on and leave him the resposability for this work. Please raise a flag if yo feel work is done to slowly for your taste and anyone slowing down will gladly pass the work and responsability to you. cheers Erich
