+== Getting started: Installing libabac ==
 
 Installing libabac is a straightforward {{{configure}}}, {{{make}}}, {{{make install}}} sequence.  There are a few things to be careful of depending on your operating system.
 
-== Software Dependencies ==
+=== Software Dependencies ===
 
 Libabac depends on openssl and the [http://www.aleksey.com/xmlsec/ xmlsec1 digital signature library].  Most unix-like operating systems have openssl installed and have xmlsec1 as a standard package. The perl and python bingings are generated by [http://www.swig.org/ swig] 1.3, and the build system uses automake and some autoconf macros.

+Under FreeBSD, use the ports system to install the following packages:

+
+If you plan to build the java implementation on ubuntu you should also 
+
+{{{
+$ apt-get -y install openjdk-7-jdk ant ant-optional
+}}}
+
+Similarly in FreeBSD install 
+
+{{{
+devel/apache-ant
+java/openjdk6

+
+We have seen no differences under the various JDKs.
+
+=== Installation ===
+
+Then get the [http://abac.deterlab.net/src/abac-0.1.4.tgz source], untar it, change to the {{{abac-0.1.4}}} directory and do the standars install sequence:
+
+{{{
+# Ubuntu users: ./configure --prefix=/usr
+$ ./configure
+$ make
+$ sudo make install
+}}}
+
+To confirm that your install succeeded:
+
+{{{
+$ cd examples
+$ make
+}}}
+
+Libabac uses the standard GNU install prefix of {{{/usr/local}}}.  '''If you are on Ububtu or another distribution that does not search /usr/local/lib for shared libraries, make sure you use ./configure --prefix=/usr'''
+
+=== Tracking Development ===
+
+If you would like to track the libabac development, you can pull code from out publically available git repository:
+
+{{{
+$ git clone git://abac.deterlab.net/abac.git
