Hi,

Some of the technical aspects of this ReadMe go beyond URLs so I'm cc-ing bear so that it gets his attention. My comments in-line:

---------------------

* Compatibility *

Our Linux binaries are built on a computer running Fedora Core 2.
It's Ubuntu (Dapper) last time I checked (Bear? Confirm?). Our build actually does not run on FC 2 (though you can build on it and it should work...).

For details on the various platforms that Chandler has been built
for, and also those that can run the binaries, please see:

  http://wiki.osafoundation.org/bin/view/Projects/ChandlerPlatforms

We do have such a list at http://chandlerproject.org/Developers/ChandlerDesktopSource#Detailed%20Platform%20Reports but having a nicer URL will help.

If you are building Chandler yourself you will need a few extra
things.  For details on how to build, please see:

  http://wiki.osafoundation.org/twiki/bin/view/Projects/BuildingChandler
http://chandlerproject.org/Developers/BuildingChandlerDesktop. This one URL seems good enough for a ReadMe.

* Running Chandler *

To run chandler, use the executable "RunChandler" in the release or debug
directory, like so:

  % ./release/RunChandler

or, if you have a "debug" version:

  % ./debug/RunChandler

If you aren't sure which you have, you can run:

  % ./*/RunChandler

Ooops... Following up on Bear's taking RunChandler out (http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2007-July/008531.html), this needs to be updated. I'm not the Linux guru/expert here so I'll let Bear or Heikki speak. Apparently though, the right method is to do:

./release/RunPython -O Chandler.py

or

./debug/RunPython -O Chandler.py

* Latest Release *

Download the new Chandler 0.7Alpha4 milestone for a sneak peak at features we are implementing for the 0.7 release. For more details go to...

http://chandler-dev.osafoundation.org/newinalpha4.php

Needs to be update of course but I guess you have a handle on that one.

Cheers,
- Philippe
