+This directory is for package builders for various platforms. The
+directories here should be named using the following format:
+
+platform_pkgname
+
+So for example, Pd for Windows runs on the Win32 platform, and uses Inno
+Setup to create the installer package, so the directory is called:
+win32_inno. This name should also be all lowercase and use an underscore for
+a separator.
+
+There are package making files out there that are not in the Pd CVS. I know
+of the PlanetCCRMA RPMs and Mandrake RPMs. So for example, when these get
+checked it, they should be in:
+
+planetccrma_rpm
+mandrake_rpm
+
+Standards are good! ;)
