+<h2>Package for the experimental GWT Out-of-Process Hosted Mode</h2>
+
+<p>
+  We provide a separate (platform independent) installation package
+  (<tt>itmill-toolkit-oophm-<version></version>.tar.gz</tt>) for the experimental Out of
+  Process Hosted Mode (OOPHM) of GWT, which allows debugging client-side code in GWT
+  Hosted Mode with a regular web browser. Using the OOPHM requires installing a browser
+  plugin (available for Mozilla Firefox, IE, and WebKit). See the manual section on OOPHM
+  for more details.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  The Linux version of GWT Hosted Mode Browser is no longer compatible with IT Mill
+  Toolkit 5.3.0 (<a href="http://dev.itmill.com/ticket/2299">#2299</a>), so the OOPHM is
+  the only option for debugging in hosted mode in Linux.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  As the OOPHM package is experimental, you should use it only for debugging purposes
+  during development. For production use, you should compile your custom widget sets with
+  the regular IT Mill Toolkit package for your platform.
