+=== Tips for Testers: ===
+Make sure you have:
+ * gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad (not sure which version, but it needs to include the gstrtpbin plugin)
+ * gstreamer0.10-plugins-farsight >= 0.12.6
+in addition to the extra compiling requirements of:
+ * farsight2-0.10 == 0.02 (aka libgstfarsight0.10-dev)
+ * gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10 (aka libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev)
+
+Note: until Farsight 2's ICE transmitter (libnice) is
+completed, NAT traversal won't work very well. So, if you're behind a
+firewall, you'll probably only be able to start sessions within your
+local network.
