I fully support the idea of not keeping generated files in SVN and in

I know it's been a while, but...  Any other thoughts/votes on this topic?


It's fine with me.
One downside with this is that it takes (at least on my not-that-old home PC) about 3.5 minutes to build all the ASN.1 dissectors ("time make -C asn1"). Since the ASN.1 dissectors are all in subdirectories (and each subdir has only one target) the build does not parallelize ("make -j X") well.
It probably could be made more parallel through some ugliness (making what is currently a recursive build non-recursive). 

Thoughts?
