I would be tempted to hold off posting anything new until we have shaken
down the new install process and build processes. Anyone who needs
immediate
access to the source code can get it through CVS.
That's fine by me, if that's the consensus.
n that case, we may want to simply disable the Downloads page entry
for the
source drop, with a message like this: "The bundled source drop is
temporarily unavailable, until our new build and install processes are
worked out. We encourage all interested parties to access the source
code
directly from the CVS repository, and hope to restore the source drop
link
soon."
I really think we should be getting regular builds up ASAP. The build
scripts
should be working; there's no good reason to not distribute them as they
are, to let people try them out. We'll never get to a stable build/install
without letting people try them. It will also force a bit of discipline
on us,
which frankly, I think we need.
