[Scons-dev] Documentation in EPUB-format

Hi Dirk, Yes my tool takes care of zipping up and formatting the container correctly. Unfortunately the SCons Zip builder method doesn't support source files with different compression types; perhaps that's a separate feature that could be added. For now I'm using the Python zipfile module di

[Scons-dev] Is Tigris issue tracking actively used?

Hi All, I was wondering what the current state of issue tracking is for the SCons project. There was some talk a little while back about moving away from Tigris to a different issue tracker, has that happened? I thought I'd have a quick look on Tigris, but clicking "All Open Issues" returns a
