I know that was somewhat meant in jest, but as mentioned at current this 
is pretty frustrating.

So you really think that every person who would like to develop for 
OpenMoko should be able to understand the OE setup?  Please tell me how 
understanding the build system helps them to write their application.

And for the converse: how hard is it really for someone, you for 
example, to write a step-by-step set of instructions to explain how 
someone with an application already written may get it on to the neo 
with the minimum of their effort?

Wanting people to know everything about everything is a noble idea but 
when those people have limited time resources then spending that time in 
places other than where they are best qualified is nothing short of 
wasteful.

Cheers,
Jim.
