I also agree.
About the last point, in Ged's mail, I'm afraid to say I've real 
difficulties to code with such build time. I'm obliged to work on outdated 
revisons, and on partial builds. That's really insane.

Asking Dmitry to abstain from work would be considered "a hack", not  
"a proper solution".

We have so many dlls and not really needed apps which make building of 
ROS slower and slower. I can understand well, why they use older revs to 
code. Some months ago, I was able to build ROS in 55 min. Now its 1.15 h 
and its getting more and more. Here my question. Why don't we move the 
less used files to rosapps to speed up the core build?

[gedmurphy]

I'm certainly not asking him to stop. But I do think we need a rethink of
our tree structure.
The rosapps thing has never been ideal either, so moving stuff into there
isn't a good solution.

Perhaps we need a hierarchy of components listed for importance. Let's say
the list ranges from 1 to 10. 1 being core components required to boot the
OS, 2 being additional components to get to the GUI, etc, with 10 being
things like these keyboard dlls I used as an earlier example.

However, such a solution isn't a 5 minute job so we do need a quick fix in
the meantime. Maybe something similar to how rosapps works, with an addition
to the /modules rbuild file?

Possibly a way of dictating the language up at build time, so only the
desired language(s) are built?

I would also like to see a leaner build.  One without explorer. ;0)
