-####OpenSSL
-Some OS X and Linux distributions will come with a pre-installed version of OpenSSL. If this version is not at least 1.0.1g, you will need to install OpenSSL manually in a different location. You can point our [Cmake find module](cmake/modules/FindOpenSSL.cmake) by setting one of the three following variables to the location of the correct version of OpenSSL.
+####Find modules
+You can point our [Cmake find modules](cmake/modules/) to the correct version of dependencies by setting one of the three following variables to the location of the correct version of the dependency.
 
-* OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR - pass this variable to Cmake with the -DOPENSSL_ROOT_DIR= flag when running Cmake to generate build files
-* OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR - set this variable in your ENV
-* HIFI_LIB_DIR - set this variable in your ENV to your High Fidelity lib folder, should contain a folder 'openssl'
+In the examples below the variable $NAME would be replaced by the name of the dependency in uppercase, and $name would be replaced by the name of the dependency in lowercase (ex: OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR, openssl).

 Be careful with glm. For the folder other libraries would normally call 'include', the folder containing the headers, glm opts to use 'glm'. You will have a glm folder nested inside the top-level glm folder.
 
-#### GnuTLS
-
-You can get a precompiled version of GnuTLS for Windows [here](http://gnutls.org/download.html).
-
-To use GnuTLS with Visual Studio, you will need to create `libgnutls-28.lib`, the import library for Visual Studio projects. This is done using the `lib` command in the `bin` folder of your GnuTLS download. Start a Visual Studio Command Prompt, and then run:
-
-    cd %HIFI_LIB_DIR%\gnutls\bin
-    lib /def:libgnutls-28.def 
-    copy libgnutls-28.lib ..\lib
-
-The Cmake FindGnuTLS module will now find libgnutls-28.lib during the Cmake run.
-
-Add to the PATH: `%HIFI_LIB_DIR%\gnutls\bin`
