[Mono-dev] gendarme: nant build files

[Christian Birkl]

Since i'm a windows user (I don't believe I've said this loud) it is really
hard for me to run the Makefile based build. Also MonoDevelop is just
available for *nis (last time i checked) so no chance for us windows
developers to build gendarme out of the box.

I get your point with the outdating - but currently as a windows developer
you just get the source and need to manually create either VS projects or
nant build files. By providing at least nant build files one may easier
begin patching gendarme than without.

Since I'm not that involved in other projects - how do other handle this
issue with "build files"?
