+spandsp 0.0.5 - A DSP library for telephony
+-------------------------------------------
+
+SpanDSP is a library of DSP functions for telephony, in the 8000 sample per
+second world of E1s, T1s, and higher order PCM channels. It contains low level
+functions, such as basic filters. It also contains higher level functions, such
+as cadenced supervisory tone detection, and a complete software FAX machine.
+The software has been designed to avoid intellectual property issues, using
+mature techniques where all relevant patents have expired. See the file
+DueDiligence for important information about these intellectual property issues.
+
+The library is licenced under the LGPL 2.1 licence. The test suite, and some support
+programs are licenced under the GPL 2 licence. The full text of these licences can
+be found in the file COPYING.
+
+Dependencies
+------------
+
+spandsp depends on various other packages for various tasks. Most of these
+dependencies relate to building the test suite.
+
+libtiff (and libtiff-devel on most Linux distributions) is required to
+build the spandsp library.
+
+libaudiofile (and libaudiofile-devel) is required to build the test suite
+fftw (and fftw-devel) is required to build the test suite. Version 2 or 3 of
+FFTW may be used. Spandsp adapts to the differences between them.
+
+fltk (and fltk-devel), Fl_Cartesian and Fl_Audio_Meter are required to build
+the test suite with GUI interfaces for some of the tests. The tests will build
+without these packages, but the GUI features will not be available.
+Fl_Cartesian and Fl_Audio_Meter can be downloaded from
+http://www.soft-switch.org/downloads.
