-                       Welcome to GNUnet
-
-
-What is GNUnet?
-===============
-
-GNUnet is peer-to-peer framework focusing on security.  The first and
-primary application for GNUnet is anonymous file-sharing.  GNUnet is
-currently developed by a worldwide group of independent free software
-developers.  GNUnet is a part of the GNU project (http://www.gnu.org/).
-
-This is a BETA release.  The network has not been tested on a large
-scale yet.  While there are no known significant bugs, we are still
-changing significant aspects of the system in any other version.  Bugs
-are common and the documentation may not be adequate for unexperienced
-users.
-
-For a longer description of the GNUnet System see our webpages
-http://www.gnu.org/software/gnunet/ and http://gnunet.org/.
-
-
-Configuration
-=============
-
-GNUnet uses two types of configuration files, one for the daemon
-(called gnunetd.conf) and one for each user (gnunet.conf).  You can
-create and edit these configuration files with the gnunet-setup tool.
-You need to add the option "-d" to gnunet-setup in order to edit
-gnunetd.conf (by default, gnunet-setup will edit gnunet.conf).  The
-defaults that are created the first time you run gnunet-setup are
-usually ok, you may want to adjust the limitations (space consumption,
-bandwidth, etc.) though.  The configuration files are human-readable;
-gnunetd is typically located at "etc\gnunetd.conf",
-"~\.gnunet\gnunetd.conf" or "var/lib/GNUnet/gnunetd.conf".  The
-per-user configuration file should be at "~/.gnunet/gnunet.conf".
-"~" is your user's profile directory.
-
-If you want to use a different configuration file, pass the name of
-the configuration file as an argument with the option "-c" to any
-GNUnet application.  Sending a SIGHUP to the gnunetd process will
-cause gnunetd to re-read the configuration file.  Note that not all
-options can be changed at runtime this way (e.g. to change any port
-number, you must fully restart gnunetd).
-
-In order to use the SMTP transport service, you should read
-http://gnunet.org/smtp.php3 first!  Note that SMTP should never
-be required, it is just a neat technical idea at this point.
-
-
-Usage
-=====
-
-First, you must obtain an initial list of GNUnet hosts.  Knowing a
-single peer is sufficient since after that GNUnet propagates
-information about other peers.  Note that the default "gnunetd.conf"
-contains URLs from where gnunetd downloads an initial hostlist
-whenever it is started.  If you want to create an alternative URL for
-others to use, the file can be generated on any machine running
-gnunetd by periodically executing
-
-$ cat $GNUNETD_HOME/data/hosts/* > the_file
-
-If the solution with the URL is not feasible for your situation, you
-can also add hosts manually.  The GNUnet webpage has a public
-directory of hostkeys under http://gnunet.org/hosts/.  You
-can of course use any other source for these files.  Copy the hostkeys
-to "$GNUNETD_HOME/data/hosts/" (where $GNUNETD_HOME is the
-directory specified in the /etc/gnunetd.conf configuration file).
-
-Now start the local node using "gnunetd".  gnunetd should run 24/7 if
-you want to maximize your anonymity.  You may start it as a service at
-computer startup.  To insert files into GNUnet, use
-the "gnunet-insert" command.
-
-You can invoke the GUI with:
-
-$ gnunet-gtk
-
-If you want to use the command line, use
-
-$ gnunet-search KEYWORD
-
-This will display a list of results to the console. Then use
-
-$ gnunet-download -o FILENAME -- GNUNET_URI
-
-to retrieve a file.  The GNUNET_URI is printed by gnunet-search
-together with a description.
-
-For further documentation, see our webpage.
