Hi, I should leave some last words about this, which I hope clarify the base of the issues Gavin and Derick have.
I recently tried to help Jerome via Jabber to get the website build script to run on his Mac. We failed on many of the inconsistencies between shell commands on the two systems (e.g. cp) and the quick solution was to replace the current make file with something else. Since we both knew ant and since ant is widely used, this sounded like the perfect solution for a quick migration to solve our problem. There was no intention to silently replace the current Makefile with ant and go with it in the future. I'm sorry that it appeared to some people that way, here on the list. I can understand Derick to be upset, if he interpreted it like this. Anyway, as Julien pointed out, we should find a consensus on a build system which we all support. And as I recently discovered, this should be a well thought out thing, since we should stay with a single system for all build stuff (e.g. release management, CI, etc). So, let's move on and see the website thingies as a proofs of concepts for a build system. Cheers, Toby -- Tobias Schlitt http://schlitt.info GPG Key: 0xC462BC14 Want to hire me?
