Could I suggest that we immediately identify a subdirectory other than Src/ where contributed modules can live and have their own Makefile?

It might also be useful to have a standard (but by default not present) directory where the build process looks for locally-supplied modules to compile. -- Bart Schaefer Brass Lantern Enterprises http://www.well.com/user/barts http://www.nbn.com/people/lantern
