It looks like & bigger parts of the build infrastructure have changed, and I'm thinking & about how to port it. Is anyone else working on it currently? & & Actually, I think it would be easier to stop pretending that we are & linux sometimes, and sometimes not, and instead create a bigger patchset & which will add a complete freebsd OS definition. Perhaps our goal should & even be to have freebsd added to the list of supported OS's, to reduce & further porting effort for each new Eclipse code drop. & & What do you guys think? makes sense to me -- otherwise, in the long term, freebsd will finish up with only the devil's tunes in its repertoire! & & Regards, & Andreas & -- 40 yrs navigating and computing in blue waters.
