 What's left to do now depends on whether you want to use the build master and web interface, or just the build slave. In the latter case, you're already done. You might need to install software that the build of your project requires, but the Bitten build slave itself doesn't require anything extra.
 
-For the build master and web interface, you'll need to install [http://trac.edgewall.com/ Trac] 0.9 beta 1 and [http://www.sleepycat.com/products/xml.shtml Berkeley DB XML] >= 2.1.x, as well as their respective dependencies. Please refer to the documentation of those projects for information how they are installed.
