+## What is this?
+
+A simple Irssi C module for testing and experimentation purposes.
+It was originally derived from the
+[irssi-lua project](https://github.com/ahf/irssi-lua)
+
+I intend to build it into a simple template of a loadable module, featuring
+the use of various common constructs, to allow others to quickly get
+up to speed when developing modules.
+
+Note that modules are significantly more effort (and less portable, without
+a huge amount of effort), so Perl scripts are to be preferred in call cases
+where possible.
+
+## Contributing
+
+Contributions to this project are welcome
+
+ * Patches can be submitted via e-mail, or preferably via forking
+ and sending a pull-request using GitHub. The repository for this
+ code is `git://github.com/shabble/irssi-scripts.git` and the
+ corresponding web-page is
+ [irssi-scripts/modules](https://github.com/shabble/irssi-scripts/modules).
+
+ Details of pull-requests can be found at
+ [GitHub](http://help.github.com/pull-requests/)
+
+ . Please poke me on Freenode IRC (`shabble` on `#irssi`) before
+ spending too much time on the code. Use the `git format-patch`-tool when
+ emailing patches.

+## Authors
+
+ * Alexander Færøy <ahf@irssi.org>
+ Original Author of irssi-lua, who did all the hard work figuring
+ out the module interface stuff. Also an Irssi project committer, I
+ believe, so that probably counts as cheating.
