+##Note on IDE's:
+
+This project can be built using an IDE that supports Maven.
+
+At time of writing (April 2015) NetBeans and Eclipse both include an earlier
+version of Maven that doesn't process Markdown files.  To build this tutorial 
+in either of these IDE's, you'll need to download the latest Maven and then 
+configure the IDE to use the external Maven rather than the bundled version.

+- Download Maven 3.2.5 from http://maven.apache.org/download.cgi.  If you’re 
on 
+Windows, download the zip file.  If on Linux/Unix, get the “.tar.gz”.  
+- Unpack it to a convenient directory (Windows: right-click on the zip and 
+select “Extract all”.  OSX: Just open the tar.gz file.  *nix: should be 
something 
+like ‘tar xvzf apache-maven-3.2.5.bin.tar.gz /usr/local/apache-maven-3.2.5  
+- In Netbeans, select Preferences (OSX: Netbeans —> Preferences.  Windows: 
+Tools —> Options) then select the “Maven” tab) and then set the Maven 
Home 
+field to point to your local installation.  
+- In Eclipse, select Window -> Preferences -> Maven -> Installations, and then
+click "Add" to add the external Maven instalallation.
+
+At the top-level project, use the IDE's menus to execute the Maven goals 
+"install" and "site".
