Anyway my concerns about the incremental build might be mute now as I see that the sjavac work has just been funded and targeted to M6.

From a developer perspective I completely understand your point of view.

But in the RE and build&test world, full builds are the only builds that mean anything, and products are created from full builds.
It is absolutely critical that we can demonstrate reliable and stable full builds, that is our #1 priority right now.

Considering all the platforms we have to deal with, including embedded, I hope you understand our situation.
