-== Requirements for Building Lightning ==
+See http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/lightning/build.html.
-If this is your first time building any of the Mozilla products, you should first make sure that you [http://www.mozilla.org/build/index.html#requirements get the tools] required to build on your operating system.
-Once you're set up with the right tools, you'll want to [http://www.mozilla.org/source.html get the source] either from the [http://www.mozilla.org/download-mozilla.html FTP server] or [http://www.mozilla.org/cvs.html through CVS].
-'''Note:''' if you're building on Windows using the free tools (ie: mingw instead of Visual Studio), then you might want to follow steps 1-9 on [http://gemal.dk/mozilla/build.html Gemal's Build Mozilla on Windows] page.
-=== Getting the latest code from CVS ===
-The Lightning codebase changes quite a bit on a day to day basis. It's kept in the calendar project tree. To keep up to date with the latest changes, make sure that when you [http://www.mozilla.org/cvs.html update with CVS] you have <tt>calendar</tt> specified as one of your <tt>MOZ_CO_OPTIONS</tt>.
-'''Note:''' if you downloaded your source as a tarball, you need to have unpackaged it with tar, not zip, in order to get the metadata required by CVS to do a proper update.
-== Building & Installing Lightning ==
-=== Editing your <tt>.mozconfig</tt> file ===
-=== Installing the <tt>lightning.xpi</tt> ===
-=== Pointing to a different profile ===
