It works here, I never push without compiling (although I forgot to
test the PDA build last time, which is broken right now - sorry). If
you encounter build problems, post the error message.

First we need test cases :-)
First test case: compile XCSoar for all platforms every day (or hour?
As often as John merges code into the official repository). If that
fails, do an automatic bisect, and send a blame email to the mailing
list ;-)
More test cases to be added to the "test" directory (unit testing the
internal libraries).

Right, if we need money for the project infrastructure, I think we can
ask users for donations. Hey, did you check the price of commercial
competitor products?

The WINE build needs a minor Makefile fix, and a full UNIX build is
still far away in the future. I'm working on it, but the day has only
so many hours..

There's some guy who offers integrated XCSoar downloads with maps and
stuff (
http://ziarko.type.pl/22_Sailplane/Sail_xcsoar.html), maybe we
should ask him if he wants to join the "official" project, and put his
stuff on xcsoar.org.
