The main difference is that develop.py is completely optional. install.py is now called from CMake, so there's no prep work we're relying on develop.py for. We're planning to keep develop.py around to make life a little easier for those developers (read: mainly Lindens) who are already used to it. If it turns out that this results in develop.py becoming a semi-required step, then we may get a little more medieval on it, but hopefully, more and more people just ditch using develop.py. The other differences are going to be under the hood. For example, if you forget to install the artwork bundle, it'll at least say "you forgot to install the artwork bundle" (and now that public_fetch_tarballs.py exists, it's probably trivial to make it just fetch the artwork bundle, but maybe we'll fix that up after the merge) Rob _______________________________________________ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/SLDev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
