+Apache Flex Blaze DS requires some build tools which must be installed prior
to building Blaze DS.
+
+####General Requirements
+- Java SDK 1.6 or greater
+- Maven 2.2.0 or greater
+
+####Verify the integrity of the files
+
+Apache relies on 3rd party mirrors to distribute their software. Because
these releases are hosted on servers that are not under our control, we
strongly recommend that you verify the integrity of the binaries or source code
before you install it using the PGP or MD5 signatures listed next to the
downloads. This involves a few extra steps, but it will verify that you are
getting a true Apache release.
+
+The PGP signatures can be verified using PGP or GPG. First download the
[KEYS][10] as well as the asc signature file for the relevant distribution.
Make sure you get these files as linked from this page (rather than a mirror)
to insure the integrity of the files.
+
+ % pgpk -a KEYS
+
+ % pgpv blazeds-4.7.0-source-release.tar.gz.asc
+
+*or*
+
+ % pgp -ka KEYS
+
+ % pgp blazeds-4.7.0-source-release.tar.gz.asc
+
+*or*
+
+ % gpg --import KEYS
+
+ % gpg --verify blazeds-4.7.0-source-release.tar.gz.asc
+
+
+Alternatively, you can verify the MD5 signature on the files. A unix/Mac
program called `md5` or `md5sum` is included in many unix distributions. It is
also available as part of [GNU Textutils][11]. Windows users can get binary md5
programs from [here][12] , [here][13] , or [here][14]. An MD5 signature
consists of 32 hex characters, and a SHA1 signature consists of 40 hex
characters. Ensure your generated signature string matches the signature string
published in the files above.
