Good to see that the committers list archive is now open. Might make
it easier to follow progress...

Nonetheless I have no real opinion whether this should eb included,
but I don't have any reasons against it as well...

I can do that, and I'd try to merge the build documentation from CVS
into it as well.

I can't promise to check the validity of the compile process on a
regular basis, but I guess I should be able to try it monthly (rough
estimate), until it really behaves the way configure;make;make install
does.

And I guess it would help to have the build docs outside the CVS tree,
this way you could learn which tree to use before checking out :)


And maybe this would encourage more people like Dave to give valuable
feedback!
