+A Word on Apache-ANT\r
+--------------------\r
+The Apache-ANT program is a build tool that uses XML-based project files.\r
+Similar to Makefiles, these project files may contain multiple targets. Most\r
+build.xml files in EDK II are auto-generated; any edits performed on the\r
+build.xml files will be overwritten by the next build.\r
+\r
+Pre-defined targets in the build.xml file include:\r
+ all - This target builds binaries for defined architectures.\r
+ clean - This target removes object files generated by commands.\r
+ cleanall - This target removes all generated files and directories.\r

+A Word on the GCC Tool Chain\r
+----------------------------\r
+EDK II will not compile with a standard Linux gcc tool chain. While Linux\r
+distributions are usually based on ELF, EDK II requires a version of gcc \r
+that is configured to produce PE-COFF images. You will find a script in \r
+edk2/Tools/gcc that will download, configure, compile, and install a gcc \r
+4.X cross-compile tool chain for EDK II development. This custom tool chain \r
+supports the IA-32 architecture. It can be built and run on Cygwin, Linux, and \r
+many other POSIX-compliant host operating environments. To compile the custom \r
+gcc tool chain, you need the following tools on your host computer: bash, gcc, \r
+gmake, curl (or wget).\r

+The documents are being managed by the Subversion Source Control on\r
+Tianocore.org. The document repository is "docs" and must be checked out\r
+separately from the EDK II source tree. Refer to the checkout procedures on\r
+the Tianocore.org Web site for EDK II.\r
