+1. What is Sablotron?
+========================================
+
+Sablotron is an XML processor fully implemented in C++. It uses Expat by
+James Clark as an XML parser. Sablotron implements XSLT 1.0, XPath 1.0
+and DOM Level2.
+
+Original creator of Sablotron is Ginger Alliance (www.gingerall.com).
+
+
+2. Licensing
+========================================
+
+Sablotron is an Open Source project released under the MPL (Mozilla Public
+License). Alternatively you may use Sablotron under the GNU's GPL license.
+
+Please, look at http://www.mozilla.org/MPL or
+http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html for further info.
+
+If you want use the debugger, you may optionally ask Sablotron to use
+the GNU readline library. Since this library is available under GPL
+only, you have to confirm, that you are accepting the GPL for the
+whole Sablotron library. You can do it, if you set the SABLOT_GPL=1
+environment during the configure process.
+
+3. Warranty
+========================================

+
+
+4. Porting
+========================================
+
+So far Sablotron is tested on Linux (RedHat 5.2, 6.0, 6.1, 6.2, and 7.0),
+Windows (NT 4.0, 95, 98, 2000), Solaris (2.5.1, 2.6, 7), HP-UX (11.00),
+FreeBSD (3.4, 4.1), OpenBSD (2.8 beta) and OpenServer (5.0.x). We hope,
+that it should work on most other Unix systems as well.
+
+If you build Sablotron on some other system, please, let us
+know. All porting activities are welcome.
+
+
+5. Installation

+To build and run Sablotron read the INSTALL file in the same
+directory as this file.
+
+To install or compile Sablotron on Windows read the INSTALL_WIN
+file instead.
