 _Software Requirements_
 
-You will need recent versions of the following pieces of software installed:
+BuildBot has the following software dependencies:
+
+* Python: [[http://www.python.org/]]
+* Twisted: [[http://twistedmatrix.com/]]
+* ZopeInterface: [[http://www.zope.org/Products/ZopeInterface]]
+* Git: [[http://git-scm.com/]]
+
+Links to the above software websites are provided for reference only -- you may very well have a more
+convenient method for installing software on your platform than downloading the source, building,
+and installing by hand.  Check public software repositories for your platform first to save yourself some
+effort.  BuildBot is not particularly sensitive to dependency versioning, so you may not need the
+absolute latest version of everything installed.  (For instance, BuildBot 0.7.12 is known to work with Python 2.5.2,
+Git 1.6.6, ZopeInterface 3.3.0, Twisted 9.0.0.)
+
+And, of course, you'll need to install BuildBot itself: [[http://buildbot.net/trac]]
