I downloaded AJRFoundation.src.tar.gz, AJRInterface.src.tar.gz, and
LDView.src.tar.gz. I tried to compile the '.pbproj' files but I got
several errors.
First, each time I opened each Project Builder file I got a message
about SCM
SCM
The SCM status operatun fail because: Unknown host. Disble SCM for this
project?
Disable Don't Disable
Then when I tried to compile the frameworks and the LDView application I
got these messages
AJRFoundation.pbproj

I guess I'll send Alex an e-mail message.
