+
+Some assembly is required. :).  First thing you will need to do is download
+ some libraries our port depends on.
+
+When compiling on windows you will need:
+icu from http://www.icu-project.org/download/  (we are using version 3.4.1).
+Libxml from ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/ 
+Libxslt from ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxslt/
+Loki from http://sourceforge.net/projects/loki-lib/ ( We'll probably remove
+ this dependency in the future ).
+You will also need cygwin ( http://www.cygwin.com ) with at least the following
+ packages and their dependencies:
+Bash
+Bison
+Cygutils
+Flex
+Gawk
+Gcc-G++
+Gperf
+Make
+Perl
+
+
+When compiling on mac you will just need:
+Loki from http://sourceforge.net/projects/loki-lib/ ( We'll probably remove
+ this dependency in the future ).
+
+
+You will want to arrange the source tree as follows:
+
+someDirectory/A/B/WebCore/...
+someDirectory/A/B/JavaScriptCore/...
+someDirectory/A/B/WebKit/...
+someDirectory/SDK/libxml/...
+someDirectory/SDK/libxslt/...
+someDirectory/SDK/loki/...
+someDirectory/SDK/icu/source/...
+
+
+If you are compiling on windows, then you will want to create new sln file that
+ references:
+someDirectory/A/B/WebCore/WebCore.apolloproj/win/WebCore.vc2005.vcproj
+someDirectory/A/B/JavaScriptCore/JavaScriptCore.apolloproj/win/JavaScriptCore.vc2005.vcproj
+someDirectory/A/B/WebKit/WebKit.apolloproj/win/WebKit.vc2005.vcproj
+
+On mac if you arrange the source tree as describe above there is a good chance
+ things should just build.  The build output on both mac and windows will be in
+ someDirectory/build/...
+
+That should get the project to compile.  To link you will have to build libxml,
+ libxslt, and icu ( Loki does not need to be built because WebKit/apollo just
+ some of its header files ) and change the project settings on WebKit's project
+ file to link against the version you built.  You can either build static or
+ dynamic libraries for libxml, libxslt, and icu.  We build those libraries as static
+ libs.
+
+Hope this helps,
