You are right. Dev tools are much harder, on the other hand we are lucky
that our users ARE developers but not dummies :-)

Yes in ideal I should do one mouse click and go sleep :-)
    all archives self are compiled, compressed, uploaded to FTP.
    dream :-)

During last years one of main problems was fight with constant changes in
OUR tools that we use:
    CodeWarrior => xcode
    Visual 2003 => 2005
    PPC => Intel.

You all know how this is painful. We still build Valentina products in 4
different compilers:
        CW - V4MD
        xcode - rest MAC
        Visual 2003 |
        Visual 2005 | -> both on different Windows to not conflict.
