Hello, Enrico,

I know you contributed treebuild.xml a few years ago, but I recommend
removing it. I hope you don't mind. I searched the net for Treebuild,
but I found nothing relevant. The old homepage
(http://treebuild.metux.de) has been 404 for a long time.

I encourage the use of mature and proven build systems like CMake or
Apache Ant, and I'm okay even with the lesser-known ones like Perforce
Jam. I even asked a CMake developer to submit a cmakefile for zlib.
But what is Treebuild? Who develops it, who supports it, and who uses
it?

Would you oppose to removing treebuild.xml from the zlib source tree?

Best regards,
Cosmin
