Hi Alessandro, Thanks for the response. I do not understand why there is NO step by step instructions for build as in FreeRDP and any other project. The reasons why we still didn’t pusblish the build instructions are: 1) We just published this code and we had to refactor a few things in the build process, so providing instructions just to change them in a few days can be misleading 2) The Casablanca (one of the dependencies) build process changed lately causing build failures (see issue #53 on github for example) and this needed to be fixed 3) We want to support as many OSs / distros as possible and in the INSTALL instructions we need to clearly state where the build works, due to the non trivial requirements. We’re going to add build instructions as soon as the above issues are sorted out. This should be the first part, if you need others to contribute and help they should be able AT LEAST to build it. Next time, what about looking on the open issues on github or asking if there are blockers? :) I do not need any installation, I want to be able to compile the code to be able to debug / change and fix. And you’re very welcome to do so of course. We’re very happy to accept contributions and build a solid community around WebConnect. It’d be great if you could reach out on IRC or other channels to discuss the plans for this project and its open issues. I already talked with 5 developers (some with 12 years of exp in c/c++ , unix and windows), I also toked 3 outsourcing to create an instruction for built, BUT none succeed! Suprisingly in the root of the project there are currently 2 scripts for Linux builds: sudo ./install_prereqs.sh ./setup-all.sh Now, true that we still have to provide offical istructions (see reason above), but those scripts seem quite self explanatory to me, if you want to give it a shot instead of waiting for the issues above to be fixed. Windows istructions will follow up as well of course. Note: just tested those scripts on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS as we added a new batch of commits that fixed the Casablance issue. For the rest, since FreeRDP has an official IRC channel beside the ML, can I ask why you and / or your army of very experienced super-duper devs didn’t try to reach out and ask for some pointers? :-) Thanks, Alessandro Thanks.
