I wasn't sure whether to answer this in this public and recorded medium, but here goes anyway: You would have to ask him why his actions, but he gave me the following impression before ceasing to answer any of my emails: I am merely an analyst and trainer, not a developer, and therefore a person of no consequence, and certainly not a person able to contribute to Waf development. That because I contribute to SCons, I am out to destroy Waf and should be excluded from Waf society to not allow me to spread sedition. Despite this, I like and use Waf in the contexts where I consider it to have winning USPs. I also like and use SCons in contexts where I consider it to have winning USPs. I also mention both in my Python courses. To bring us back on topic: D support in SCons and Waf does need improving. Not sure about CMake, I have tried is with D. I have set up an infrastructure to allow contributions to SCons D support evolution based on a Mercurial repository on BitBucket, https://bitbucket.org/russel/scons_dmd_new. Any and all constructive contributions most welcome. A particular issue is that only DMD is supported really, so gdc, ldc, etc. support needs testing and work. Also the actual test harness for the tool needs work. -- 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
