Just a reminder - I did say I quite like the current approach. The alternative suggestion was just to prompt some debate to make sure we're all happy. I agree as soon as things start being separated out it raises its a whole lot of new issues.
We do seem to have issues with build stability, was a bit surprising to come back after a week away and find just so many problems getting a complete build through. One reason for that may be that everyone is so busy with their own work that they don't have time to investigate and fix other problems when they arise. Maybe we all just need to slow down a bit and find more time to spend on non-specific work items for the good of the project. ...ant On 7/12/07, Luciano Resende <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I think there are two issues here. I thought Ant's suggestion were more towards release/distribution, and you are raising the question around build. For the build issue, my personal choice is to build all the working modules, and comment the ones that are failing. This looks like the approach we have agreed before. As for making this happen, people should be more careful when making commits. I've started a new thread on the current build issues, and based on feedback of the community (if anyone is fixing them) I'll comment them out.
