+# Bareos third party libraries
+
+This is the "home" of external libraries that are used in Bareos
+
+### Adding third party libraries
+
+Each Library will be put into its own subdirectory with `git subtree` and will have its own CMake include-file (if it is not already made available by the provider of the library), that is then loaded in CMakeLists.txt
+
+A typical git subtree command would look like this : `git subtree add --prefix destination/path https://www.yourgithost.com/your/repo yourbranch(usuallymaster) --squash`
+
+Make sure the library license is covert by `core/LICENSE`. At best, the library is also licensed as AGPL-3. If it is not already covered, a section needs to be added for it in `core/LICENSE` and `debian/copyright.footer`. Also execute `cd debian; make copyright` to update `debian/copyright`.
+
+### What to add?
+
+External things that we rely on (but don't want to change) should live here. Things like `FMT` and `GSL` could be added here. 
+`lmdb` (and maybe the `md5` code) should be migrated here.
+
+Things like `droplet`, `fastlz` and `ndmp` will stay as is, because there is no upstream and we made significant changes (i.e. we imported that code into our code-base instead of just using it).
