Please do not introduce unnecessary complexity. SConstruct builds the jars fine right now. No need for another tool that does the same thing.

As someone who has used Ant, make, and scons professionally, I can only say I find scons vastly simpler to use.

I see no problem with distributing Java jars, either.  At some point, there will be users of the jars that are not Java programmers (perhaps the CSDPlayer will turn into a full-featured GUI front end; after all, Java is cross-platform).

Sorry I won't be at the meeting! 

Regards,
Mike

I think this should probably be removed as well, and either an ant
build.xml file should be added for the CSDPlayer.java file or a
Makefile.  But I think it will be easier for us to just chat over it
this weekend. =)
