+Eclat README
+Copyright (C) 2012 Sergey Poznyakoff
+See the end of file for copying conditions.
+
+* Introduction
+
+Eclat stands for EC2 Command Line Administrator Tool. It allows you to
+manage Amazon EC2 services from the command line, fast and easy. It does
+not require resource-consuming libraries. It is written in plain C,
+depends only on libraries which are always installed on any decent system,
+and has a tiny memory footprint.
+
+* Documentation
+
+None so far. But it will be provided as soon as my time would permit.
+
+* Building
+
+The following libraries are needed for Eclat:
+
+* Curl, available from <http://curl.haxx.se>.
+* Expat, avaliable from <http://www.libexpat.org>.
+
+To compile, run the usual triplet:
+
+ ./configure
+ make
+ make install
+
+For information about the configure script and its options, refer to
+file INSTALL included in the distribution.
+
+* Bug reporting.
+
+Send bug reports to <gray+eclat@gnu.org.ua>.

+These notes intend to help people working on the GIT version of Eclat.
+See end of file for copying conditions.
+
+* Requirements
+
+If you have taken the sources from GIT you will need the following
+packages to build Eclat. I don't make any extra effort to accommodate
+older versions of these packages, so please make sure that you have the
+latest stable version.
+
+- Automake <http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/>
+- Autoconf <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/>
+- Bison <http://www.gnu.org/software/bison/>
+- Flex <http://flex.sourceforge.net/>
+- M4 <http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/>
+
+* Bootstrapping
+
+Obviously, if you are reading these notes, you did manage to check out
+Eclat from GIT. The next step is to get other files needed to build,
+which are extracted from other source packages:
+
+1. Change to the source tree directory
+
+ cd eclat
+
+2. Run
+
+ ./bootstrap
+
+Once done, proceed as described in the file README (section
+INSTALLATION).
