[Scons-users] Why SCons is not slow

[Bill Deegan]

Gour,

O.k. so basically a hassle factor with needing both pythons installed if
you're doing something with python 3.
Good to know.

We have a few developers working on the python 3 compatibility effort. That
said it's volunteer and on their own time, so predicting when they'll be
done is not easy or wise.
Hopefully before end of the year, if we're lucky in the next few months.

We're still working on getting everything we want into scons 2.5..

-Bill
