+********************************************************************
+
+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:
+
+* libvorbis, a BSD-style license software implementation of
+  the Vorbis specification by the Xiph.Org Foundation 
+  (http://www.xiph.org/) 
+
+* libvorbisfile, a BSD-style license convenience library
+  built on Vorbis designed to simplify common uses
+
+* libvorbisenc, a BSD-style license library that provides a simple,
+  programmatic encoding setup interface 
+
+* example code making use of libogg, libvorbis, libvorbisfile and
+  libvorbisenc
+
+WHAT'S HERE:
+
+This source distribution includes libvorbis and an example
+encoder/player 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 utilities is available in the vorbis-tools
+package.

+
+BUILDING FROM TRUNK:
+
+Development source is under subversion revision control at 
+https://svn.xiph.org/trunk/vorbis/. You will also need the 
+newest versions of autoconf, automake, libtool and pkg-config in
+order to compile Vorbis from development source. A configure script
+is provided for you in the source tarball distributions.
+
+  [update or checkout latest source]
+  ./autogen.sh
+  make
+
+and as root if desired:
+
+  make install
+
+This will install the Vorbis libraries (static and shared) into
+/usr/local/lib, includes into /usr/local/include and API manpages
+(once we write some) into /usr/local/man.
+
+Documentation building requires xsltproc and pdfxmltex.
+
+BUILDING FROM TARBALL DISTRIBUTIONS:
+
+  ./configure
+  make
+
+and optionally (as root):
+  make install
+
+BUILDING RPMS:
+
+after normal configuring:
+
+  make dist
+  rpm -ta libvorbis-<version>.tar.gz
+
+BUILDING ON MACOS 9:
+
+Vorbis on MacOS 9 is built using Metroworks CodeWarrior.  To build it, 
+first verify that the Ogg libraries are already built following the
+instructions in the Ogg module README.  Open vorbis/mac/libvorbis.mcp,
+switch to the "Targets" pane, select everything, and make the project.
+Do the same thing to build libvorbisenc.mcp, and libvorbisfile.mcp (in
+that order).  In vorbis/mac/Output you will now have both debug and final
+versions of Vorbis shared libraries to link your projects against.
+
+To build a project using Ogg Vorbis, add access paths to your
+CodeWarrior project for the ogg/include, ogg/mac/Output,
+vorbis/include, and vorbis/mac/Output folders.  Be sure that
+"interpret DOS and Unix paths" is turned on in your project; it can
+be found in the "access paths" pane in your project settings.  Now
+simply add the shared libraries you need to your project (OggLib and
+VorbisLib at least) and #include "ogg/ogg.h" and "vorbis/codec.h"
+wherever you need to access Ogg and Vorbis functionality.
