But you can't use any automation with buttons :-)
For instance, nightly builds generation, Buildbot and others

http://buildbot.osgeo.org/

Also, Linux users are familiar with 3 commands then execute to build and
install new software:

./configure
make
make install

With "buttons", users are unable to follow their well-known path of
installation, unless we add the .NET/Mono to Autotools and NMAKE makefiles.

In community-driven projects, buttons are of little help.
That's why NAnt and other powerful builders were invented.

If you don't know autotools or nmake, I can add it but I need you to
document building process using your project files, then I will know
what to port to autotools.
