 Building and Installing
 -----------------------
 
+Configuring the submodules
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The project contains submodules for some dependencies and some
+libraries. Once you have cloned cpp-netlib, you must update the
+submodules:
+
+::
+
+    $ cd ~/cpp-netlib
+    $ git submodule update
+
 Building with CMake
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 To build the libraries and run the tests with CMake, you will need to
-have CMake version 2.8 or higher installed appropriately in your
+have CMake version 2.8.10 or higher installed appropriately in your
 system.
 
 ::
 
     $ cmake --version
-    cmake version 2.8.1
+    cmake version 2.8.10
 
 Inside the cpp-netlib directory, you can issue the following statements to
 configure and generate the Makefiles, and build the tests::
 
     $ cd ~/cpp-netlib      # we're assuming it's where cpp-netlib is
-    $ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug     \
+    $ cmake ~/cpp-netlib-build \ # cmake is built out of source
+    >       -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug     \
     >       -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang     \
     >       -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ \
     >    .
 
 Once CMake is done with generating the Makefiles and configuring the project,
 you can now build the tests and run them::
 
-    $ cd ~/cpp-netlib
+    $ cd ~/cpp-netlib-build
     $ make
     $ make test

-Building with Boost.Build
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-If you don't already have Boost.Build set up on your system, follow the steps
-indicated in the Boost Getting Started Guide [#]_ -- you will particularly want
-to copy the ``bjam`` executable to a directory that is already in your ``PATH``
-so that you don't have to go hunting for it all the time. A good place to put it
-is in ``/usr/local/bin``.

-Building and running the tests can be as simple as doing the following::
-
-    $ cd ~/cpp-netlib
-    $ bjam
-
-Doing this will already build all the tests and run them as they are built. In
-case you encounter any problems and would like to report it to the developers,
-please do the following::
-
-    $ cd ~/cpp-netlib
-    $ bjam 2>&1 >build-test.log
-
-And then attach the ``build-test.log`` file to the email you will send to the

 Running Tests
 -------------
 
 If you want to run the tests that come with cpp-netlib, there are a few things
 you will need. These are:
 
-  * A compiler (GCC 4.x, Clang 2.8, MSVC 2008)
-  * A build tool (CMake [#]_ recommended, Boost.Build also an option)
+  * A compiler (GCC 4.7.x, Clang 2.8, MSVC 2012)
+  * CMake [#]_
   * OpenSSL headers (optional)
