1. You need to be able to compile TeX Live sources (now and preferably
at least once (or twice in case of problems) per year):
http://www.tug.org/texlive/build.html
2. You need to compile luatex and metapost:
- svn co http://svn.contextgarden.net/suite/build-binaries
- edit platform.sh (in case of problems or questions, please ask)
- run ./bin_update_src.sh, go to src/metapost and src/luatex and try
to build the two with ./build.sh
3. If you are able to accomplish both, our requirement/request would
be that you would be ready to keep building luatex and metapost on
regular basis. A while ago that meant twice per month. (At the moment
there has been no new release since July.) This means that whenever a
new version comes out, you are ready compile a new binary within a few
days.
I'm also CC-ing Boris Veytsman who used to be interested in compiling
TeX Live for arm.
