[PD-dev] autotools for pd-devel

[Mike McGonagle]

Hans,

Didn't I read last week that Iohannes was planning to convert
everything over to Scons? I mean, it all seems very confusing, with
the transition from CVS over to SVN, with almost none of the old info
removed from the website, and having to hunt for what is there for
SVN, it is hard to know what the state of the build system is, or how
to even set things up to be included.

Is there some public place where people are discussing what is
actually happening? Has someone taken to updating the website with
what info is current and accurate?

I mean, don't get me wrong, it is wonderful that people are doing
these things, but with different things happening with different
people, no one seems to be on the same page.

Mike
