+<PRE>Hello and thank you for your post.
+
+First of all, we had the problem to know which external copyleft libraries
+we could
+use in our project. We looked at libraries such as ACE (for sockets),
+ClanLib (for
+system init), libsock++ (for sockets too), SDL and so on, but the problem
+was that these libraries did too much things or not enough. If a library
+does only a few things, we can rewrite it very quickly (with, why not,
+copy/paste)
+because we want the install very easy to do. If the user has to find and
+install
+10 libraries before starting the NeL compilation, he surely gives up. When
+the
+library does too much stuff, it often doesn't do it in the same way we want
+to do it,
+and we can only reuse a few part of the library. And in this case, it's sad
+to compile
+during 1 hour an external library for only reusing only a few functions. We
+prefer copy/pasting
+these parts directly in our lib.
+
+&gt;<i> I understand that your code is (honestly !) of far better quality than the
+</I>&gt;<i> average available crap (I also find myself to rewrite much of the code
+</I>that
+&gt;<i> I'm supposed to used) but there are exceptions (libsigc++ or any stuff
+</I>from
+&gt;<i> www.boost.org for exemple). I just hope that nevrax does not lose time
+</I>because
+&gt;<i> of a Not Invented Here syndrom...
+</I>
+We'll take a look on libsigc++ and boost. we don't reinvent every thing, we
+only reuse code
+from other libraries but we don't include the entire libraries.
+
