Yep. With limited volunteer time the less time people can spend on setup the better. > Would switching from Ant to Maven cause you to > contribute more? A simpler build would help, I’m not that fussed what technology it is. Maven is far more likely to cause less issues. > I keep hoping others will start contributing, and in the > upcoming 0.5.0 release I invested several days in trying to make the > builds more sensible because folks said that was a barrier. Make it easier for people to do so. A few suggestions: - Suggest simple things people can help out on / where work is required - Document what is missing / still to do - Fix up the broken examples (or point people in the right direction to fix). Example help a lot (see the traffic TourDeFlx gets). - Start on a guide on how to migrate Flex applications, there’s been a bit of this in email but I think it would be more useful if it was brought together put in a wiki page/FAQ - Raise JIRAs / discuss a little more what is been worked on. Seems to me that sometimes there's a few largish checkins with little JIRA/discussion. Thanks, Justin
