[Polyworld-develop] revised build instructions & broken cvs email

[Larry Y. <la...@in...>]

FYI, the instructions for building Polyworld have been substantially 
simplified and revised at 
<http://beanblossom.in.us/larryy/BuildingPolyworld.html>.  Initially 
Snow Leopard presented some real challenges, and wanting to have a 
common environment for my Intro to Programming class's Python and 
Python as used in the Polyworld data analysis presented additional 
challenges.  But in the end I was able to streamline things a fair 
bit and make everything play reasonably well together.

On a less pleasant front, SourceForge is no longer forwarding source 
code-change email messages, for reasons I haven't had time to look 
into yet.  This has been going on for a while now.  Development 
proceeds apace, but until this gets fixed, the changes won't be seen 
in email, I'm sorry to say.  Huh, I wonder if this message will get 
through...  Let me know if it doesn't. :)

P.S. Someone finally got Polyworld to build on Windows. 
Unfortunately, it only works with a modified snapshot of the source 
base, not current top-of-tree source, so we're only part way there.
