Speaking of discussions we need to have .... :) Right now we don't have a bunch of distcc or aranym buildds. Do we want to go there? Distcc has it's limitations, including not the least of which that we become somewhat dependent on cross-compilers. However, it's about the only way we've been able to handle some of the larger packages resource-wise. Tuomas has volunteered a machine near vault13 and I can setup a machine near poseidon and zeus. Aranym is apparently getting faster, but we'll then be facing emulation bugs as well as real ones. Given our hardware, that's probably not a big deal, but there it is. So we've been playing with these tools. Do we want the port to become basically dependent on them? Certainly for the time being, perhaps for good? -- Stephen R.
