Awesome! Thank you...
May I interest you in my very humble (yet useful) grunt plugin? https://github.com/MarcDiethelm/grunt-less-imports
from assemble-less.

Want to do a pull request with the update?

I'd be happy to help. I've not figured out how the tarball is used though. Or how the less versions in the tarball are chosen. :)
from assemble-less.
already done, thx
from assemble-less.
btw, the only reason I had 1.5.0 as a tarball is that it was inconsistently (or not ever) published to npm. I'm on the core team for less, so I wanted to have that as the default version for this repo so I could test newer features. this is the same reason I added the feature to allow users to define a specific version of less to use for compiling... anyway, sorry for the confusion.

Ah, thanks for clearing this up. Probably not the best idea to rely on a tarball that may or may not exist in the published version though. Or an unreleased version of less for that matter! That's what npm link
is for, local testing, no? (I see that in your new commit you are depending on [email protected]. So you did publish it after all. :) Are you planning on re-introducing the use of tarballs for later versions? I hope not. I'm using assemble-less in my framework and the dependency on tarballs of unreleased less versions somewhat compromises its robustness.

Totally aware of the fact.

Whatever is the best solution at any given time, based on the goals of this project.
Or an unreleased version of less for that matter!
The focus of this plugin will continue to be innovation. I want to test new ideas here and new Less.js features (including unreleased), and this is supported by the first paragraph on the README:
This project is a fork of the popular grunt-contrib-less plugin by the talented Tyler Kellen. Please use that plugin if you require something stable and dependable.
For your use case, it might be better to use grunt-contrib-less for projects that need that stability, and I'd love to have you continue to support this project when you are looking to solve problems that grunt-contrib-less can't solve (and won't because of the experimental nature of the solutions).
from assemble-less.
btw, I do understand and view, do you have any suggestions on how we can keep this project focused on "the next version of Less.js", while also ensuring stability? I have resisted bundling dependencies into any project I'm on, but in this case maybe it's the best solution... I could just include the most current, stable version of less.js in the project, and make the wip version of less a devDependency? would that be okay to you?
from assemble-less.
I would much prefer to use your plugin. The banner option for me is invaluable, because it allows me to inject a dynamic base URI into the generated CSS for use with images, sprites and fonts.
Somehow I seem to have forgotten about the experimental nature of assemble-less. So I'm in no position to tell you what to do.
Having said that, I think your proposal is excellent! A perfect balance of having a reliable library that can easily be used to experiment with some upcoming features of LessCSS. Just what I want.
from assemble-less.
Apparently banner is not working this way anymore. I'll create a new issue.

awesome! I'll do that as soon as I have a chance.

Yeah create an issue for that, I'll get it fixed for you.
