+Workspace and Development Tools
+===============================
+
+We recognize that there are different ways to set up a workspace and different tools that may be chosen.  This is just one way to set things up.
+
+Suggested Directory Structure
+------------------------------
+*NOTE*: You may have different versions of eclipse and java.

+Java
+-----
+Download the latest Java_8_SE_Development_Kit_ from Oracle.   Select a Linux x64 package.
+
+Unpack it.

+
+Maven
+------
+
+Download the Apache_Maven_3.3.9_ binary.  NOTE: 3.3.9 is the recommended version, even though much higher versions are available.
+
+Unpack it.
+
+.. _Apache_Maven_3.3.9: https://archive.apache.org/dist/maven/maven-3/3.3.9/binaries/
+
+Create an .m2 directory for maven and put settings.xml_ in it.  Edit the local repository path in settings.xml to make it correct for your environment.  Everything else should be OK.
+
+.. _settings.xml: https://wiki.onap.org/download/attachments/15997820/settings.xml?version=1&modificationDate=1506156303000&api=v2

+Eclipse
+-------
+
+Download Eclipse_for_Linux_.  Select the 64-bit Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers.  Oxygen seems to be the latest version. These instructions were written for Neon.
