No problem.

I tried to summarize my findings of last few days on the current state of Code_Aster building/deployment practices and its relation to packaging efforts in the RFC posted on Code_Aster forum [1]. I hope that this topic will start some discussion, although I have to admit that I am a bit skeptical now. I am going to invest a bit more time to compare state of the building/deployment in the latest version of Code_Aster to packaged 9.2. But first... I have to do more in learning how to package (lots of RTFM).
