I love SCons, but it has some unpythonic aspects to it, which (IMO) make sense as a standalone build tool, but not so much as a standard library module. I'd probably want to see some of those things improved if we were to use it to replace distutils. There does seem to be overlap between the two tools though, and it might make for an interesting sprint/project to find and refactor the commonality. - -Barry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) iQCVAwUBRVObXHEjvBPtnXfVAQIhQQP/esS6o+7NX/JenJcuEdvb7rWIVxRgzVEh rfZGSOO2mp6b0PgrvXjAnZQHYJFpQO5JXpWJVqLBPxbucbBwvWaA0+tgTrpnBpj9 Cs/vwlMsmk55CwSYjvl7eM0uW9aIuT9QcZxuf4j+T7dzQOL0LL2Id4/876Azcfo0 7A0dtc2oJ+U= =H1w2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
