WRT to the Logger issues, you need to clean. TBH I know of very few situations where a clean is not a good idea after pulling from a remote. But granted, I have done OS development for well over 10 years, so that's just experience

I did notice that AvailableSettings is using a double quote character other than ". No idea what that is about.

As for my IDE, I use IntelliJ. It too is open source, and imho is a much better IDE. But, I generally just code in my IDE. I run tests suites from command line. I will run individual tests (and debug obviously) in the IDE; that's part of coding to me.

In general I am not interested in implementing "short term solutions". I have the plan that I know will work the best. It is more that for "short term solutions" I am willing to accept contributions (of course if a contributor wants to take on TheRightWay to fix something, even better!!). So if you can help great; if not, I'll get to it when I get to it.
