DISCLAIMER: These notes are from the defunct k8 project which precedes SquirrelJME. The notes for SquirrelJME start on 2016/02/26! The k8 project was effectively a Java SE 8 operating system and as such all of the notes are in the context of that scope. That project is no longer my goal as SquirrelJME is the spiritual successor to it.

Seems I am very fond of LaTeX documents as of late, now I have a donot.tex which list things to not do so I do not end up coming back to the same issues I smashed down before.

And now it is full of suggestions on what to do and what not to do.

My build system, the existing bits of hairball and roughbld are starting to flake and show strain. Feels like adding implicit dependency support is a hack, so I deprecated everything. Once my build stuff is done and the new hairball is in place I can use that instead.
