The new contribution workflow for Gnome
I'm so happy. The last time I tried setting up a GNOME dev environment I ran into two major issues.<p>Using jhbuild to download dependencies doesn't work if your network blocks git:// URLs. I had to hunt a lot to learn to tell jhbuild to use <a href="https://" rel="nofollow">https://</a> or ssh:// URLs instead. It still broke when updating a dependency and only worked for toplevel explicit dependencies.<p>The second was the extremely long process of getting the dev environment set up compared to the ease with which Mozilla does it.<p>Both of those issues look fixed now and make the ecosystem all the more inviting for me to hack on. I even think you guys bested Mozilla on that second point.<p>I'll try it out and report back.<p>PS: Is this tied in some way to Ubuntu or can other systems get in on the fun as well? Arch Linux does have a gnome-unstable repo so I can grab the latest GNOME Builder.
