+Oroborus is a small yet fully featured GNOME compliant window manager for the
+X Window System. It is distributed under the GPL (see LICENSE for more details).
+
+The main aim of Oroborus is to be small and light with very few fancy features,
+so there are no docks, no taskbars, no root menus and no icons. These can be
+added quite easily by either using Oroborus with GNOME or using some other
+applications that provide the required functionality.
+
+Oroborus reads its defaults from either /usr/share/oroborus/defaults or
+$HOME/.oroborusrc. An example rc file is included in /usr/doc/oroborus-$VERSION
+Themes and schemes can be found in /usr/share/oroborus.
+
+You may also want to install the keylaunch, deskmenu, and desklaunch programs
+found on the oroborus home page.
