ok, sounds good.

One thing I wonder is how changes should be made to the build system
under scons?

I guess the changes need to take place in the simula­scons repository
(wherever that may be located, I forget where it is) and then copied
into the DOLFIN repository.

Is it ok to make changes in the scons subdirectory, or should we
rather ask you or Johannes to make the changes so that you can
synchronize with simula-scons?
