+
+b) Porting
+
+Portability is a goal of this project. To this end, Yoink is written in
+standard C++ and takes advantage of cross-platform libraries. If code
+changes are required to cleanly build Yoink on your platform, please send
+back patches.
+
+
+III. Packagers
+--------------
+
+a) The build system
+
+You can probably tell that the build system of this package is built from
+autoconf and automake. It should be fairly sane. If you find any
+problems, especially any bugs which complicate packaging on certain
+systems, please send back patches.
+
+b) Targeting Win32
+
+If you have a working mingw32 toolchain with all the dependencies, you can
+build a win32 binary using a command such as this:
+
+./configure --host=mingw32 --prefix=/usr/mingw32/usr
+
+where mingw32 is the correct name of your toolchain. You can get all the
+non-standard dependencies from the git repository at win32/win32-libs.zip.
+Just unzip the contents of that archive into your toolchain. If everything
+goes smoothly, you should have a yoink.exe appropriate for the win32
+platform. You can then build a complete installer using "make package" if
+you have nsis installed.
