Hi Guys,

I'm inclined to just provide packaged binaries for the main targets
rather than worry about all the various different options.  I'd even
go as far as say just providing release build packages would be fine.

The OSG itself isn't that difficult to build, and OSG users all should
be capable of pulling down the sources and building their own version
of the OSG.  The binaries of really help out with quick evaluations of
the OSG and for helping redistribution of binaries/libs with
applications or as part of central repositories.

For day to day development we actually want osg users to be compiling
from source and testing out latest versions as this is how we get
people to test and debug the OSG, which in turn is how we keep the
quality of our software high - this constant testing.  Over reliance
on binaries during the development cycle will lead to less of the
community testing the source build and runtime, which is not something
we really want to encourage.

Robert.
