Question(s) [Frustrated]

Hello,

Is there someone I can speak with directly instead of through the mailing
list? I have lots of questions, and the 1-3 day turnaround with the mailing
list in getting my questions answered is not very productive. The answers I
have received haven't helped much.

I've been on IRC and bugged and bugged a couple of the guys there and
they'ved helped a bit, but they tell me to e-mail the client dev list for a
lot of my questions.

Is there a paid support line where I could have my questions answered
quickly? Is this my best hope in getting questions answered?
 
Here are my basic questions:

[Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex, linux-2.2-libc6-gcc32-i586, ribosome v2.5]

1. What are the simple instructions to getting the java bindings compiled?
e.g. "BIF branch helix, target hxclient_3_4_4_atlas, profile
helix-client-all-defines, run build, download this, run that, etc.
 
2. I'm trying to compile realplay_gtk_atlas, player_all,
helix-client-all-defines (debug), and I get the following error:

cd datatype/aac/fileformat && make  SUBMAKEFLAGS="" -f Makefile

make[1]: Leaving directory

make: *** [all] Error 2

How do I fix that?

Also, when I try and compile the GTK portion, I get:
 
make: *** No rule to make target
`../../../common/log/logcommon/dbg/logcomlib.a', needed by
`dbg/realplay.bin'.  Stop.

How do I fix that?

3. I'm perfectly willing to write full Java bindings for Linux, but I would
prefer to use the latest (atlas) client binaries. What should my setup be?
(branch, target, profile)

4. After I get that compiled, where's a good place to start?

5. What is the minimum set of libraries (.dll, .so files) I need to run
video in an embedded window in my own native application on linux or
windows?

6. What branch, target, and profile should I use to get h264 and motion jpeg
(MJPEG) support?

7. Is there a forum available so the community can answer questions quicker?

Thanks so much!
