hi all, I'm excited to find your project, and I'm thinking to use Thrift for my new development initiative.
There's one problem though: Thrift snapshot requires autoconf-2.60 or higher, and my development machine is CentOS 5.0, which does not have an easy option for newer autoconf. I think that's not the only OS distribution suffering from this. The easy way to ease the early users' life is to publish the result of "make dist", instead of just the SVN snapshot tarball. The hard way would be to remove 2.60 dependency and make it compatible with autoconf-2.59. By the way, in configure.ac you've got AC_PREREQ(2.59). The project in my mind is a new generation of Torrus (http://torrus.org/). The design goals and early requirements are described in http://torrus.org/Torrus_2.0_Design_Concept.pdf cheers, stan
