 Requirements
 -------------
 
-It currently requires Visual Studio 2013 (the free Express for Windows Desktop version should suffice) and Windows Vista or newer. There are plans to create versions for additional platforms and tool sets as time allows.
+For Windows platforms, it currently requires Visual Studio 2013 (the free Express for Windows Desktop version should suffice) and Windows Vista or newer.

+For GNU/Linux platforms, it currently requires a non-ancient version of GNU autotools, cairo (>= 1.12.16), GTK+3.0 (>= 3.8.0), gmodule-2.0, gobject-2.0, and related libraries (autotools will tell you about any missing dependencies). By default it builds using GCC (>= 4.9.0), but you can configure it to use recent versions of Clang.
 
 Discussion
 -------------
 
-There are several places to discuss this proposal. You can discuss it on the [std-proposals forum](https://groups.google.com/a/isocpp.org/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/std-proposals), on the [SG 13 forum](https://groups.google.com/a/isocpp.org/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/graphics), or you can leave a comment on the [the blog post announcing the proposal](http://isocpp.org/blog/2014/01/n3888). Members of the cairo graphics library community are, of course, welcome to discuss the proposal in the cairo mailing list as well if they would prefer that. You can also attend the upcoming meeting of the ISO C++ committee in Issaquah, WA, USA where this proposal will be presented for feedback from the committee. See http://isocpp.org/std/meetings-and-participation/upcoming-meetings for more information.

 Intellectual property rights are important. You may not agree with every IP law and regulation out there (I certainly have some suggestions for reforming them), but we cannot ignore them and hope nobody notices. Many of us do things like develop software, do technical writing, or work for companies where that is a big part of what pays the bills. In other words, our livelihoods depend on copyrights and licenses and the such. So I apologize for all the scary language above. But until I go a decade without seeing statements like "I haven't decided on a license yet but here's some code I wrote", I'll continue to write scary statements in hopes of scaring people into taking copyrights and licenses more seriously. And because I really do mean them. I don't want to be facing $50,000+ in lawyers bills plus some large monetary judgment because someone passed off somebody else's code as their own or didn't follow their employer's policies or whatever. I don't know anyone else who'd want to be facing that either.
