Re: Downloading and compiling projects

["Youcef Rabah Rahal" <yrrahal42 at hotmail dot com>]

Hi Ossama,

I'd suggest that you try compiling a project at a time and attach the error 
messages that you have to your messages so people can help you.

As for bayani, just follow instructions on the INSTALL file, there are 
unfortunately no autotools implemented yet. And unfortunately too, there's 
no interest in compiling bayani yet :( As it is in early implementation 
stage. If you try to compile, just send the error log.

Salam,

Youcef.
