Thanks for the intro.

I think everything with a free license should go in CVS.  Whether it  
goes into distros or build systems is another question.  FYI: there is  
a [concat] here: externals/ggee/control/concat.c  but if you use  
Pd-extended, you can have objects with the same name since the  
namespace works.

Pd-extended doesn't use the library format.  Some people choose to use  
build libraries for themselves.  This topic has been discussed at  
length on this list, so if you are interested, there is lots to read in  
the archives...
