+Building a MacPython distribution
+=================================
+
+The ``build-install.py`` script creates MacPython distributions, including
+sleepycat db4, sqlite3 and readline support.  It builds a complete 
+framework-based Python out-of-tree, installs it in a funny place with 
+$DESTROOT, massages that installation to remove .pyc files and such, creates 
+an Installer package from the installation plus other files in ``resources`` 
+and ``scripts`` and placed that on a ``.dmg`` disk image.
+
+Prerequisites
+-------------
+
+* A MacOS X 10.4 (or later)
+
+* XCode 2.2 (or later), with the universal SDK
+
+* No Fink (in ``/sw``) or DarwinPorts (in ``/opt/local``), those could
+  interfere with the build.
+
+* The documentation for the release must be available on python.org
+  because it is included in the installer.
+
+
+The Recipe
+----------
+
+Here are the steps you need to follow to build a MacPython installer:
+
+*  Run ``./build-installer.py``. Optionally you can pass a number of arguments
+   to specify locations of various files. Please see the top of
+  ``build-installer.py`` for its usage.
+
+  Running this script takes some time, I will not only build Python itself
+  but also some 3th-party libraries that are needed for extensions.
+
+* When done the script will tell you where the DMG image is (by default
+  somewhere in ``/tmp/_py``).
+
+Testing
+-------
+
+The resulting binaries should work on MacOSX 10.3.9 or later. I usually run
+the installer on a 10.3.9, a 10.4.x PPC and a 10.4.x Intel system and then
+run the testsuite to make sure.
