+General Information
+===================
+
+gstreamermm provides C++ bindings for the GStreamer streaming multimedia
+library (http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org).  With gstreamermm it is possible to
+develop applications that work with multimedia in C++.
+
+gstreamermm is developed over glibmm, libsigc++ and libxml++ and the
+functionalities they provide.  This means that, among other things, referencing
+and unreferencing of GObjects is handled automatically via glibmm's automatic
+pointer class, Glib:RefPtr<>, and libsigc++'s slots are used for callbacks and
+signals.
+
+There are several examples, including a media player, in the examples/
+directory, that demonstrate how to use the API and there are API docs in the
+docs/reference/html directory.  The core plug-ins, such as Gst::Identity and
+Gst::FileSrc are also provide along with many of the base plug-ins.
