Hi Jan, having the new tooling in place would be great but we don't have pressure. We should take all the time that we need to make it final and complete and well tested. Before we integrate it we should test your branch with some languages in detail on at least 3 platforms (Linux, windows, MacOS). You did a fantastic job and it will be a huge step forward. We can integrate it probably at any time when it is ready. On the other hand it is a very important part of our build system and my experience told me that we should test it deeply. Don't get me wrong I am sure you made a good job here, it's simply that I have seen too often that we got many problems with less. Don't put yourself under pressure. I can build your branch on MacOS. What do I have to do exactly to trigger your new tooling? I will ping you on IRC ...
