[GEM-dev] getting latest Gem into Pd-extended

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

hey Ricardo,

Its great that you are doing that.  That reminds me, since you are  
getting deeper into Pd development, and are working on Gem-related  
stuff, I think your attention is most needed on Gem itself.  Gem is  
hosted in a separate sourceforge project, so you have to ask IOhannes  
for commit access, if the new git repo is going to work like that.

A great place to start is the details, like you already have.  Then  
also any deployment details.  I've been working on my 'load every  
help' automated test script and find it very valuable for finding  
problems.  The Gem reference is not included yet because it needs to  
run in the GUI, and the current script runs 'pd -nogui', but I'll try  
to get a GUI version running too so we can test the Gem stuff too.
