B-) that's acceptable - but lets trim our hairball of options and ifdefs first... and unlike before which was "anything is good as long as its an option"... lets be very particular about them and just why they are there and how they get added. some options you need will nevr be there - but we can make it sane to keep a patch for it so you can just have your special "onefang" efl build just for you and your clients with some minor patches that we dont have to worry about. > Though right now, I'm gonna see what Vincent does to fix the bug that > crashes 1.7.2 when you try to disable ecore_con.
