Oh, another person who does not like "document" very much...I can understand Tim's idea of a drag&drop system, but it implies that a new "algebra idea" is completely coded in ONE file. It's not like the "changeset" stuff. And for the Axiom build system it would be better to have not just a collection of Makefiles that you document (and read) separately. It is really hard to get an overview of what relates to what. I would rather like to have a document that describes the build. But I guess that document consists of several Makefiles and a description of their relations.
