If that does happen you should expect A LOT more traffic since people will often download the latest version. Seeing, however how often compatibility changed between recent releases I think that most professionals will stick to 'official' releases.
+1 on the automated notifier for broken builds. Possible drawback is that if not all possible build systems are equally supported, it will be easy to miss a broken build for a specific configuration. Eventually this could lead to 'preferred' build system with more support, which might not stick well with some developers. For example on Windows I use MinGW for building while official releases use VS. Personally I'm sort of fine with it, realizing how much work is needed to maintain both systems. I'd still like to use gcc though! _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
