Not sure what to do about the second.
It's easy.. Make it abundantly clear that a build system, *any* build system, is expected or required for review. And one way to do that is to *require* no build system for review. Because if your library can be reviewed easily without a build system it means the portability of your code is good. Anything else should be a red flag for reviewers. PS. I'll keep living the dream when we don't distribute any build system with our libraries. Or the alternate dream where we distribute with 5 or more alternate build system specifications. -- -- René Ferdinand Rivera Morell -- Don't Assume Anything -- No Supone Nada -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net
