Hello; As you all might've been thinking, one of the things we really have to move out of the tree is dmake so I just helped dmake step out by moving it to it's own repo at Google Code.
http://code.google.com/p/ooo-dmake/ Why Google Code and not apache-extras you might wonder: Dmake is something that is unlikely to be transferred to Apache and it's a tool that both AOOo and LibreO are interested in getting rid of. Adding it to apache-extras would've given that impression that dmake somehow had a future in Apache ;). I was not even going to add the ooo- prefix but the simple "dmake" name was taken by some other, completely unrelated, project. I also had a try at transferring the SVN history from the older repository but that involves getting a dump of all the OOo repository and then using svndumpfilter ... it was just not worth it IMHO, If someone wants to do it, I could try to load it though. I will try to provide some prebuilt win32 binaries on the Google Code site but now we can focus on removing dmake from the tree and adding a build dependency in the same lines of epm. cheers, Pedro.
