Looks like we'll be able to discuss this in London in November, I got myself tickets to operatingsystems.io on a whim -- hopefully half of the talks won't^H^H^H^H^H*will* be over my head :-) > > As it stands I've found the rumpkernel concept and implementation project > > is easy to work with and well documented, better than many FOSS projects, > > *especially* those involving complex build systems and components. > > Thanks, I guess.

In my experience all build systems tend to eventually devolve into an unmaintainable mess internally, and said mess then requires $INTOXICANT to tackle. What's nice about buildrump.sh is that the external user interface is so straightforward. As a counter-example, I briefly contemplated building Firefox OS for my Nexus 7 tablet. Then I went and actually looked at the ~20 pages of instructions on the mozilla.org Wiki and just gave up in order to preserve my sanity. -mato ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Meet PCI DSS 3.0 Compliance Requirements with EventLog Analyzer Achieve PCI DSS 3.0 Compliant Status with Out-of-the-box PCI DSS Reports Are you Audit-Ready for PCI DSS 3.0 Compliance?
