Yes seriously, having to have an Internet connection, to get anything started is a serious problem for many people. When at home it is not a problem, when on the road it is a ####### disaster. As with Maven, Gradle, (anything in the JVM-verse with artefact dependencies) you have to pre-plan having all the artefacts you might want before leaving the Internet. Thus no serendipitous starting of new work. Until the Internet is a high speed resource free for everyone at all times everywhere, please do not hardwire into build tools assumptions that it is there Internet connectivity as Maven originally did. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:[email protected] 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: [email protected] London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
