Perhaps the plugin should provide an OTB binaries install mechanism once it runs and inspects the platform it is on.

I believe QGIS builds on more platforms than OTB does. plugin code is in python. so nothing much to worry on binaries part and they depend on qgis processing code. QGIS had removed otb plugin from processing and kept others. So there is another stuff to work on user side and developer side. Regards, Tisham.

The documentation of build from source is already there for OTB. The new module which if merged into Modules/Wrappers/QGIS will be like any other otb module. Since there are no external dependencies, this could be enabled by default. So need to specific documentation to build it is not required. But once the coding work is done, there will be another (RFC) and in that i will include the usage, builds options etc..

The binaries issue will always exist and I believe OTB should support the same ones for which Qgis binaries are available already. The other platforms should have a clear build from source documentation. These should be listed in the RFC.
