+
+FreeCAD is a general purpose feature-based, parametric 3D modeler for 
+CAD, MCAD, CAx, CAE and PLM, aimed directly at mechanical engineering 
+and product design but also fits a wider range of uses in engineering, 
+such as architecture or other engineering specialties. It is 100% Open 
+Source (LGPL2+ license) and extremely modular, allowing for very 
+advanced extension and customization.
+
+FreeCAD is based on OpenCasCade, a powerful geometry kernel, features an 
+Open Inventor-compliant 3D scene representation model provided by the 
+Coin 3D library, and a broad Python API. The interface is built with Qt. 
+FreeCAD runs exactly the same way on Windows, Mac OSX, BSD and Linux 
+platforms.

+
+Installing
+----------
+
+Precompiled (installable) packages are usually available to you from 
+several sources and are described on the FreeCAD download page: 
+http://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/index.php?title=Download
+
+Compiling
+---------
+
+Compiling FreeCAD requires to install several libraries and their 
+development files such as OpenCasCADe, Coin and Qt, listed in the 
+pages below. Once this is done, FreeCAD can be simply compiled with 
+cMake. On windows, these libraries are bundled and offered by the 
+FreeCAD team in a convenience package, on Linux they are usually found 
+in your distribution's repositories and on Mac OSX and other platforms 
+you will usually need to compile them yourself.
+
+The pages below contain up-to-date build instructions:

+For Linux:   http://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/?title=CompileOnUnix
+For Windows: http://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/?title=CompileOnWindows
+For Mac OSX: http://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/?title=CompileOnMac
+For Cygwin:  http://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/?title=CompileOnCygwin
