+---- info ----
+Bcast is a decentralized and LAN-based communication program that is focused on minimalism, efficiency, and, to some degree, modularity. It supports the following network communication methods:
+
+		UDP broadcasting, for chat-style and "broad" communication
+		*INCOMPLETE* UDP multicast, for finer control and higher efficiency than broadcasting
+    *INCOMPLETE* UDP peer-to-peer, for non-TCP based direct comms
+		*INCOMPLETE* TCP sockets, for direct peer-to-peer communication
+
+In comparison to most communication programs geared towards decentralization, bcast attempts to separate the user interface from the networking code as much as is possible. This enables multiple frontends to easily be developed for almost any platform.
+
+Even further, bcast provides peer-to-peer or peer-to-group encryption via a trusted network/shared password scheme - in the case of a direct peer-to-peer comm, following the initial handshaking procedure encrypted with the trusted key, a new, temporary key is agreed upon and used for future communication between those peers.
+
+---- compiling ----
+
+At the moment bcast compiles into the following binaries:
+  ccast: primary client
+    Fully-supported terminal client, relies on nothing more than an
+		ANSI-compliant terminal interface - colors optional
+  xcast:
+    state: in-complete stub, basic interface w/ buttons
+		Fully-supported X11 client, relies on nothing more than Xlib
+
+To compile either, simply type:
+	make ccast
+or
+	make xcast
