## Requirements ##
-Google Test is designed to have fairly minimal requirements to build
-and use with your projects, but there are some. Currently, we support
-Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, and Cygwin. We will also make our best
-effort to support other platforms (e.g. Solaris, AIX, and z/OS).
-However, since core members of the Google Test project have no access
-to these platforms, Google Test may have outstanding issues there. If
-you notice any problems on your platform, please notify
-[googletestframework@googlegroups.com](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/googletestframework). Patches for fixing them are
-even more welcome!
