Clay,

Overall it looks good.  However, I recommend splitting out the items
that are related to setting your build environment into a separate
section preceding the section about building your repository.  Something
like the following:

> To set up your build machine or environment use the following steps:
>  1. Get the SunStudio compilers via the Image Packaging System (IPS). 
> To install
>     run the command "pfexec pkg install sunstudioexpress"

>     * SUNWldskint
>     * SUNWwbint
>     To get these packages, one can download them from
