  source files and whose other build systems can take ten seconds to start

much better, thanks. Now I have a good idea what it does!


cheers,
Holger

Please put the useful info from there into the package description and remove 
this boilerplate.

This paragraph also doesnt fit a package description.

This neither, I guess.


cheers,

Hi Holger,

I grabbed the intro section from the manual, and reworded the second
paragraph since it's no longer first person.  Even then, I'm not sure the
second paragraph is necessary, but I'm including it now to try to give a
better description.

 Ninja is yet another build system. It takes as input the interdependencies
of
 files (typically source code and output executables) and orchestrates
 building them, quickly.

If this looks good, I'll upload the new version to mentors.
