Without that, any work you do is shooting in the dark. This is (of course) particularly true for a distributed project, where you can't just yell over the wall to someone that they broke the build. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ OpenMoko powers that be: PLEASE Hire someone to create and maintain the build process NOW. It will increase productivity of your developers as well as the community developer team. The investment of one additional FTE will help enormously. be well -- Ron K.
