Hello<br>
<br>
Thanks for your contribution. I integrated the distribute part in the<br>
bindings tree. The git submodule issue is another aspect for which I do<br>
not have any strong opinion, for or against it. The current setup works<br>
fine, but can indeed be less discoverable. It could be solved through<br>
submodules, or through better documentation (that the submodule use<br>
would also require anyway).<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>

It probably needs some more time to mature. Quick instructions on how to track submodules as branches instead of specific commits are explained in [2].</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>But anyway, after playing with submodules for a while, it does actually seem rather clumsy - even after setting everything up to use the master branch in [3], it's complaining about the other folders under bindings/ (which I didn't even touch) when I do a `git submodule update`</div>
