README.md

This directory contains all packages and package support files used for BigBlueButton.

Each directory represents one package with some exceptions:

• checkouts contains checkouts of all relevant projects, they are not committed
• sources contains the sources of all projects and respective patches
• x2nix contains some static files for various *2nix projects. They should never need updates

Most directories contain a generate.sh script, they are called from the generate.sh script in this directory. utils.sh contains some useful functions that are shared between directories.

The scripts mimic make by building only what changed, but instead of relying on the mtime of files, we rely on the git dirty/untracked status.

Package name mapping
