time for me to update my plans, too ;)

I'm finishing the switch to automake 1.9. Automake 1.9 has the catch 
that it will not generate Makefile.in files in case there is an issue 
with the Makefile.am file, which means I'll have to work around the -pg 
CFLAGS issue for profiling vs. xprofiling.

Then I'll be having some fun trying to get rid of kaffeh. I'd like to 
rip it out, have the generated header files in the CVS, and replace 
kaffeh with javah from cp-tools project.

And then, I'd like to address the remaining BSD make build problems.

Finally, it would be nice to switch to a non-recursive build, 
eventually. Michael Koch did that for GNU Classpath, yesterday, and 
reported a success, slimming the build times down. That would allow us 
to get rid of most of the Makefile.in and Makefile.am files, and to 
express build dependencies (clib on jni headers, jni headers on class 
files, class files on java files) in a more straight forward way.

cheers,
