What does jom stand for?

We all know and love jom but what does the acronym stand for?

Hi,
Isn't it for "just an other make" ?

@VRonin Afaik, Joerg Bornemann is the maintainer, probably that's a hint?

Somehow I think Jom should be branded: Joerg's Own Make with his smiling picture as a logo. Kind of like Newman's Own brands. 😀

jom's cool, but MS has bigger fish to fry if you ask me. With the infuriatingly slow NTFS, even reading the .cpp files and (then) reading the translation units can take ages itself. And unfortunately this extends to mingw, clang or w/e compiler you choose to use. To add insult to injury when you work with something that generates a lot of object code (like our beloved eigen), the linker takes about half my lifetime.

I apologize in advance...

@kshegunov said in What does jom stand for?:

half my lifetime.

Proof of Halflife 3
