If cmake (or perhaps meson http://mesonbuild.com/ ?) truely is so easy to use and provides big benefits, a patch that should be simple to make that uses this or a script that automigrates contents from autofoo files demonstrating the cross platform and building benefits would be appreciated. Until the proof of concept is better than what we currently have the incentive to switch to something requiring more work for transitioning is unlikely. > GitHub also offers a WebSite builder and a Wiki for each repository, > other than an issue tracker. The GNOME project which hosts GIMP (and related projects) source code and issue trackers are considering changes to which software/infrastructure these are hosted on, GIMP and related projects will likely follow along + if and when such infrastructure migration happens. Personally I would look forward to better bug/issue reporting and tracking, as bugzilla has evolved I think it contains too many mystery fields and drop-downs that confuse rather than guide the issue tracking progress. /pippin _______________________________________________ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address: gimp-developer-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-developer-list
