frooh hey guys, I was hoping to use the build tools from github.com/perl6/book to create a commercial work; does anyone know if I can *use* the build tools for theat, given that they themselves won't be distributed or sold? 00:13
sorear frooh: where do you live? 00:14
frooh US
(TX, to be specific)
sorear AFAIK, unless you clicked "I agree" at some point, there are no rules on usage 00:15
TimToady well, it my fall under implicit copyright under the Berne Convention, which does potentially have some restrictions 00:17
PerlJam frooh: ask chromatic if you can use the tools he used for his book.
frooh PerlJam: yeah, that's really what I should do
anyone know the best way to get in touch with him? 00:18
TimToady say something stupid on reddit? 00:19

jdhore1 oh, I didn't read that correctly 02:27
Well the thing is, I don't have any Windows boxes and i'm rather glad I don't have Mono (or Java, for that matter) on my system.
sorear did you use Java before it was associated with Oracle and Larry Ellison? 02:29
jdhore1 not really
but between when they open-sourced it and the Oracle transition was complete, I thought Java was DECENT. 02:30

colomon yesterday I couldn't even get that far. :)

colomon sorear: yes
sorear right, makes total sense.
shouldn't it be src/Perl6/... ? 21:59

sorear does nom do away with src?
jnthn sorear: the Perl6 directory holds the compiled output.
sorear: Maybe should be lib :)
or blib 22:00
:)
moritz or src/gen/
jnthn has no idea :)
moritz: Well, not really (more)
These are actual PBCs that we will want to install
benabik HFS is case insensitive. On most OS X machines, "Perl6" and "perl6" are the same file.
jnthn benabik: Yeah, I was OS X ignorant. :) 22:01
moritz thinks that "gen" stands generally for generated files, indepently of whether they should be installed or not
benabik Oh, I think someone mentioned it already. Timer went off in kitchen and delayed advice. :-/
moritz oh, bold fail :-)
