New contributor; FreeType port to BeOS

[Andrew Bachmann]

Welcome Karsten!

Thanks for compiling FreeType.  If you do a configure --prefix=pathhere, and

then do a make install, all the files we need should be in that pathhere.
Then
you could zip it up easily.  You can either email it to me, or if you want
to
share with the BeOS world at large, I recommend that you signup on bebits:

http://www.bebits.com/devs/signup

I will certainly pass on any other tasks that I come up with along my route
to getting the build system going.  If you haven't already, you will want to

checkout the openjdk following Bryan's helpful instructions:

http://haiku-os.org/documents/dev/openjdk_7_enviornment_setup_for_beos_r5_0_3

Until we get our own repository clone up and running this should be a good
way to get familiar with the code and its structure.  I will send out a
zip/diffs
that should get the build going as soon as I get a little farther.

Thanks again,
Andrew
