In reply to jeremy@marzhillstudios.com (jeremy@marzhillstudios.com):
Just because I can't shutup ;)
I don't think anyone here truly wants obtuse code, the fact of the
matter is were moving from a closed source base to an open one. Things
are and will continue to get better. It just takes time. I also think
that the focus has been pretty spot on. There is only so much time in a
day, there is only so much a developer can do in a day. ;)
The code is a heck of a lot nicer to build, and code than when it was
first released, and I'm sure it will continue to get better.
Not everything will succeed (autoconf/automake ) but hey....
Some of the stuff should just be pushed off until a
rewrite of the code is done however. (Moving things around in cvs is
a pain in the butt, so I wouldn't recommend too many sweeping changes.)
Again the best way to get things changed is to show some initiative.
Talk is cheap ;) So stop listening to me....
Kent
