Hi Scott-
Ok, to be up front and honest I haven't used SCons at all yet, but if it really is an honest to god replacement for autoconf, make, and friends then I'm really excited.
. . .
What do you think? Are the SCons developers interested in helping us do this? Do any of you use Wine yourselves?
I'm definitely interested in anything that helps the cause of making building software easier. What sort of help are you looking for?
I'm always glad to be a resource for questions and advice, but if you're looking for someone to actually write the SConscript files, I'm afraid my priority will have to be work on SCons itself (documentation, and getting 0.97 stabilized and out the door). If you need features/extensions that are useful generally, I'd be glad to do what I can to try to get those into the release.
