+<para>Please, please update the version number in 
+<filename>source/include/version.h</filename> to include the versioning of your package. This makes it easier to distinguish standard samba builds
+from custom-build samba builds (distributions often patch packages). For 
+example, a good version would be: </para>
+
+<para><programlisting>
+Version 2.999+3.0.alpha21-5 for Debian

+<para>Samba now has support for building parts of samba as plugins. This 
+makes it possible to, for example, put ldap or mysql support in a separate 
+package, thus making it possible to have a normal samba package not 
+depending on ldap or mysql. To build as much parts of samba 
+as a plugin, run: </para>
+
+<para><programlisting>
+./configure --with-shared-modules=rpc,vfs,auth,pdb,charset
