+Waterfox was one of the first widely distributed 64-Bit browsers on
+the Web and quickly gained a loyal following. At one time, Waterfox
+had one thing in mind - speed. But now Waterfox also attempts to be an
+ethical, user-oriented browser.
+
+Features:
+
+ Disabled Encrypted Media Extensions (EME)
+ Disabled Web Runtime (deprecated as of 2015)
+ Removed Pocket
+ Removed Telemetry
+ Removed data collection
+ Removed startup profiling
+ Allow running of all 64-Bit NPAPI plugins
+ Allow running of unsigned extensions
+ Removal of Sponsored Tiles on New Tab Page
+ Addition of Duplicate Tab option
+ Locale selector in about:preferences > General
+
+Waterfox is only available for the x86-64 architecture.
+
+This SlackBuild just repackages the binary package provided by the project.
+It doesn't attempt to build the browser from source.
