+This package is based on ares 1.1.1 (written by Greg Hudson). I decided to
+fork and release a separate project since the ares author didn't want the
+improvements that were vital for our use of it.
 
-The package is thus dubbed 'c-ares' since I (Daniel Stenberg) want this for
-use within the curl project (hence the letter C) and it makes a nice
-pun. Also, c-ares will not remain API compatible with the original ares, so
-picking a new name makes it more obvious to the public.

 The full source code is available in the 'c-ares' release archives, and in the
 'ares' subdir of the curl CVS source repostitory.
