I call out the build issue because in my experience the build issue is a big 
mental hurdle to getting started. Everything should be spelled out in the 
readme / ant file there in the example directory. Lovely as it is, wiki is far 
away.

I did figure out the .net 4.0 part.

Two lines in the read me, one for ant cmake and one for the .net on my path 
would have saved a lot of grief
