+Parts of our build and deployment environment are currently beeing changed.
+The main goal behind this is being able to easily create deployable packages/bundles for OSX.
+This Page should be a work in progress and its purpose is to document the overall design and the different tasks required to implement it.
+The idea is that people involved in these tasks discuss all topics related to that and document the decisions here.
+Once we all have the same idea about the solution we aim for, we can assign the different tasks to different people and complete them more efficiently.

+== Future design ==
+Some basic design decisions:
+  * In the first place we stick to Premake. If someone offers a working solution with other tools like CMake, we are open to change that decision.
+  * Sticking to Premake means we can't manually create workspaces
+  * We put the prebuilt external libraries as well as the sources into a separate repository
