The main reason to use ardour-dev for this stuff, is that Paul
subscribes to it and not this list.  Any build-time issues, especially
involving latest CVS snapshots should really be directed to the
developers as no ordinary user will know or care what the answer
is.   Luckily, I'm here but sometimes I might not answer all the questions
:)

I think of the ardour-users list as a place for usage questions primarily.
Sadly, a lot of times only developers know the answers to
those too...

You also know that to receive the very fastest answers, use IRC
#ardour channel.
