Hi,

Some of the technical aspects of this ReadMe go beyond URLs so I'm 
cc-ing bear so that it gets his attention. My comments in-line:

It's Ubuntu (Dapper) last time I checked (Bear? Confirm?). Our build 
actually does not run on FC 2 (though you can build on it and it should 
work...).

We do have such a list at 
http://chandlerproject.org/Developers/ChandlerDesktopSource#Detailed%20Platform%20Reports 
but having a nicer URL will help.

http://chandlerproject.org/Developers/BuildingChandlerDesktop. This one 
URL seems good enough for a ReadMe.

Ooops... Following up on Bear's taking RunChandler out 
(http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2007-July/008531.html), 
this needs to be updated. I'm not the Linux guru/expert here so I'll let 
Bear or Heikki speak. Apparently though, the right method is to do:

./release/RunPython -O Chandler.py

or

./debug/RunPython -O Chandler.py

Needs to be update of course but I guess you have a handle on that one.
