[Scons-users] compile scons submodule

[Brad Kraemer]

Hi Jan,

Certainly lots of way to structure your build (with SCons you actually 
get the freedom to structure it out as you see fit). If your looking for 
inspiration, you can see the way mine are structured (using a few SCons 
tools I wrote). This may be significantly over (or under) board 
depending on your project but just another example of the possibilities.

Hello SCons!

Thanks,

Brad
