1. Quick way
-------------

- Look in the 'linuxfirmwarekit/_example' dir.  There you will find examples
for creating a .exe, .so and .sh plugin-test along with its respective 'Makefile'.

- Think of your short, informative plugin-test name, create a dir with that name
under 'linuxfirmwarekit/'.

- Make sure you have a 'Makefile' that copies your resulting plugin-test binary
(and any other helper binaries you need) into the 'linuxfirmwarkit/plugins/' directory.
The firmwarekit goes through this directory and runs each plugin-test it finds there.

- Submit any patches you'd like to share to the mailing list:
http://www.bughost.org/mailman/listinfo/firmwarekit-discuss


----------------------
2. More documentation
----------------------

- Read section '3. Implemention' in the 'README' file for the implementation
design of the firmwarekit.

- Now follow 1. Quick way above :)
