=== Getting Selectricity ======================
===============================================
-Selectricity is free software and is distributed under the MIT or
-BSD-like ExPat license. You are free to use, modify, and distribute, or
-rework Selectricity. Of course, we'd sure like it if you would send
-fixes back to us and tell us about cool stuff you do with our software!
+Selectricity is free software and is distributed under the GNU Affero
+General Public License version 3. You are free to use, modify, and
+distribute, or rework Selectricity under the terms of that license. Of
+course, we'd sure like it if you would send fixes back to us and tell us
+about cool stuff you do with our software!
The best way to get Selectricity is just to download it from our source
-source repository. You'll need the Bazaar version control system or
+source repository. You'll need the Git version control system or
source control manager to check it. You can get it here:
- http://bazaar-vcs.org
+ http://git-scm.com/
Once you have it, getting the source code is pretty easy. You just need
to check out a branch with a command like this:
- bzr branch http://projects.mako.cc/source/selectricity
+ git clone http://projects.mako.cc/source/selectricity/.git
-This will give you the latest *development* version of our code. If you
-want the latest production version (i.e., what we're running on the
-site), you can grab that here:
+By default, this will create a working copy with the latest
+*development* version of our code. If you want the latest production
+version (i.e., what we're running on the site), you need to switch to
+the live version of the software which is kept in a branch called
+"live." Once you cloned the repository above, you can switch into the
+directory (i.e., run "cd selectricity") and then run the following
+command:
+
+ git checkout -b live origin/live
- bzr branch http://projects.mako.cc/source/selectricity-live

=== Dependencies ==============================
Our server configuration uses Mongrel (installed from gems) behind an
Apache2 load balancing proxy using mod_proxy.
+You'll also need to have a MTA installed. We use Postfix and have not
+tried it with any other system. Presumably though, anything that
+provides '/usr/bin/sendmail' should work.
