Any thoughts?
Yes: perfect! A lot of the libraries discussion seems to be about how to provide binary packages and how to integrate builds for various compilers etc etc. Give me a way to download the source hierarchy in full or in part, and a way to tell the compiler where to look for it, and I'll be quite happy. I think it makes sense to have the source around -- preferably a CVS checkout -- for all but the most basic and fundamental of functions, that way we can browse, learn, improve and enhance, and submit the modifications easily. (Do builds get so complex that compiling from source is unfeasible?) It seems to me that binary packages should be mostly optional, and can be deferred to the compiler developers to snarf from the "hslibs" (stable) hierarchy and include at their leisure? -kzm -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
