    v20 v21  
    3939This would require that Foo declared the Foo_native_version macro to 
    4040be set to 1.2.3 (in this example).

     45This implies to overide the macro Foo_native_version within the glue package. Useful probably for testing external package in a fast way. See ticket #35.

    4247== 3. Wildcard or prioritized project dependency support (DavidQ) ==
     
    128133will still have the existing symlink structure.
    129134
     135=== ''CMT team's answer'' ===
     136
     137It is clearly a specific Atlas item which should be resolved within Atlas_policy, Atlas fragments/pattern and well documented for future use.
     138
     139
    130140== 6. Revisit g77 include path (DavidQ) ==
    131141
     
    136146should revisit this, perhaps in conjunction with 7. below.

    138153== 7. Investigate whether we can use gfortran instead of g77(DavidQ) ==
    139154
     
    143158uniformity. We would need to ensure that gfortran was shipped with 
    144159the kit, but that's done already.

    145164
    146165== 8. cmt co tag (DavidR) ==
     
    193212We are thinking of having a snapshot functionality to get an `image' of a configuration. Ideally this snapshot would be in xml and could be translated (via XSLT) in other format (Xcode, Visualx.x, and so on): see ticket #32.
    194213
     214Another point is to convert requirements file into xml by a tool.
    195215
    196216== 12. Separate the 'build' environment from the 'user' environment (SébastienB) ==
     
    202222confusion (while developers are trying to reproduce users' bugs) and ease
    203223spotting mis-configuration.
     224
     225=== ''CMT team's answer'' ===
     226
     227see 11 ?
    204228
    205229== 13. Introduce a mechanism to describe runtime dependencies between packages (SébastienB) ==
     
    218242  * Runtime dependencies
    219243  * Etc.
     244 * Identify the common parts
    220245
    221246Probably for the version 2 ;)
     
    267292=== ''CMT team's answer'' ===
    268293
    269 Compilation seems to be clearly a place for improvements. See ticket #34
     294Compilation seems to be clearly a place for improvements but we are rewriting our own patched make version.
     295Hace we reached the Make limit, e.g. as it only deals with timestamps ? See ticket #34.
    270296
    271297== 15. Profile and optimise CMT (SébastienB) ==
     
    293319=== ''CMT team's answer'' ===
    294320
    295 See ticket #34
     321See also ticket #34.
    296322
    297323== 16. have a build-dir location which can be configured (SébastienB) ==
     
    316342precompiled-header plug-in.
    317343
     344=== ''CMT team's answer'' ===
     345
     346
     347
     348
    318349== 18. produce makefiles structured according to the "Recursive Make Considered Harmful" prescription (AndreiG) ==
    319350
     
    367398=== CMT team's answer ===
    368399
    369 Interesting links. Should take time to well understand it/make tries. See ticket #34.
     400Interesting links. Should take time to well understand it/make tries. The logic exists for describing the graph(cmt show uses)
     401, we can imagine to generate a global makefile. See also ticket #34.
    370402
    371403== 19. Avoid creating archive libraries unless explicitly requested (DavidQ) ==
