Re: [Jsynthlib-devel] fixed build error in trunk

[Vladimir A. <vl...@gm...>]

Well, after looking carefully at developer section of the project I discovered civilized way for occasional developer to submit changes. There is a patch section. The lonely patch that i found in there was molding  there since 2009. The patch added support for SY85.

So I added a couple of patches there. I suggest anyone with useful changes contribute through that interfaces as well. We will see how that would work.

BTW, there is also bug tracker for the project.

Lets try to bring the project to life in a civilized way using available tools. If all this activity would still be ignored by project owners, then it would be worth discussing other options.

I really would like the current project live and improve. There is a good website, decent  documentation, and even centralized patch archive. This all could be brought from good to great

Regards,
Vladimir
