What I'm doing is reduce the number of patches as
far as possible. Patches have # of issue tracker, and if exists,
cws name which patch was committed to. m85, there are two NetBSD/pkgsrc
specific patches, but they were gone.

What Pavel is doing is very clear,
he has build scripts, build log, and also patches.

and what I'm doing is also very clear
just checked out from specific tag, and build with showstopper fix
patches, build logs are also available.

Pavel seems to have newest POT files merged builds, but mine is not.
So his builds are l10n oriented, as his role in OO.o. Correct?
He also seem to have applied patches with #iT# which are not
build stoppers.

Unfortunately it can always happens.
we are doing separate efforts to build for Mac OS X etc, and which one
is valid for QA? All of them - true.

Eric, do you think we need some authorized build machine
like Hamburg team and authorized configure argument, patches (hopefully 0)
so that we can sure and we make transparent process to move to the same
direction? then what we need? some people must keep OOo buildable for
some specific platform (IMHO this costs, since Hamburg team only concerns
about win/linux/solaris esp. in earlier development stage), and QA etc.

Well, what Hamburg team doesn't do should be compensated by other
volunteers who act as a release engineering team.

Currently I'm interested in pkgsrc framework, so that
we can reduce this effort as far as possible for ever platform other
than Windows (what a pity). From my experience as a ports committer
of FreeBSD, build from source using ports is quite popular, even each
milestone source takes ~250Mbytes, build time will also take 7h without
errors, but source code is downloaded ~150 times in just two or three days.
while my Mac OS X build of m85 is downloaded *ONLY* 16 times!!
