+#HOWTO compile MTSatellite
+
+To build MTSatellite a [Go](http://golang.org) compiler 1.3 or better is needed.
+
+Currently this is only tested on Debian Wheezy, Debian Jessie,
+Ubuntu Trusty Thar and Ubuntu Utopic Unicorn. Other flavors
+of GNU/Linux should do, too. Mac OS X may work. Problems with MS Windows
+are expected.
+
+A quick and dirty way to produce the binaries of `mtdbconverter`,
+`mtredisalize`, `mtseeder` and `mtwebmapper`:
+
+    # Assuming you have a 64bit GNU/Linux system. For other systems take
+    # the corresponding version from https://golang.org/dl/
+    $ wget https://storage.googleapis.com/golang/go1.3.3.linux-amd64.tar.gz
+
+    $ sha1sum https://storage.googleapis.com/golang/go1.3.3.linux-amd64.tar.gz
+    14068fbe349db34b838853a7878621bbd2b24646  go1.3.3.linux-amd64.tar.gz
+
+    $ tar xf go1.3.3.linux-amd64.tar.gz
+
+    $ mkdir -p gopath/{pkg,bin,src}
+
+    $ export GOROOT=`pwd`/go
+
+    $ export GOPATH=`pwd`/gopath
+
+    $ export PATH=$GOROOT/bin:$GOPATH/bin:$PATH
+
+    # On Debian Wheezy you have to install the LevelDB dev from Backports.
+    $ sudo apt-get install libleveldb-dev

 To get a glimpse what it does watch [Realtime Webmapping for Minetest worlds](http://youtu.be/iYEROGPj7RI)
 on YouTube.
 
+See [COMPILE](https://bitbucket.org/s_l_teichmann/mtsatellite/src/default/COMPILE.md) how to compile
+MTSatellite. Essentially you need Go 1.3 (x >= 3) and a GNU/Linux system.
+
 To use it you have to configure your Minetest server to use the Redis backend data store.
 Instead of a real Redis server you have to run **mtredisalize**. This server stores the data
 in an optimized form and collects changes made to the world over a configurable amount
