+# CMake build system design considerations:
+#
+# - Include directories:
+#   + Do not define include directories globally using the include_directories
+#     command but rather at the target level using the
+#     target_include_directories command. That way, it is easier to guarantee
+#     that targets are built using the proper list of include directories.
+#   + Use the PUBLIC and PRIVATE keywords to specify the scope of include
+#     directories. That way, a target linking to a library (using the
+#     target_link_libraries command) inherits from the library PUBLIC include
+#     directories and not from the PRIVATE ones.
+# - TF_PSA_CRYPTO_TARGET_PREFIX: CMake targets are designed to be alterable by
+#   calling CMake in order to avoid target name clashes, via the use of
+#   TF_PSA_CRYPTO_TARGET_PREFIX. The value of this variable is prefixed to the
+#   tfpsacrypto and tfpsacrypto-apidoc targets.
+#
+
+# We specify a minimum requirement of 3.10.2, but for now use 3.5.1 here
+# until our infrastructure catches up.
