+********************************************************************
+
+Vorbis is a general purpose audio and music encoding format
+contemporary to MPEG-4's AAC and TwinVQ, the next generation beyond
+MPEG audio layer 3. Unlike the MPEG sponsored formats (and other
+proprietary formats such as RealAudio G2 and Windows' flavor of the
+month), the Vorbis CODEC specification belongs to the public domain.
+All the technical details are published and documented, and any
+software entity may make full use of the format without license 
+fee, royalty or patent concerns.
+
+This package contains a native java port of:
+
+* libvorbis, a BSD-style license Java software implementation of
+  the Vorbis specification by the Xiph.Org Foundation 
+  (http://www.xiph.org/) 
+
+* libogg, a BSD-style license Java software implementation which 
+  uses the Ogg bitstream format to arrange the raw,
+  compressed bitstream into a more robust, useful form
+  (http://www.xiph.org/ogg/)
+
+* libshout, a GNU-style license Java software implementation library 
+  for communicating with and sending data to an icecast server
+  (http://www.icecast.org/download.php)
+
+WHAT'S HERE:
+
+This source distribution includes libvorbis and an example
+encoder to demonstrate use of libvorbis as well as
+documentation on the Ogg Vorbis audio coding format.
+
+You'll need libogg (distributed separately) to compile this library.
+A more comprehensive set of Java utilities WILL BE available in the vorbis-tools
+package.
