-ngIRCd is an Open Source server for the Internet Relay Chat (IRC), which
-is developed and published under the terms of the GNU General Public
-Licence (URL: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html). ngIRCd means "next
-generation IRC daemon", it's written from scratch and not deduced from the
-"grandfather of IRC daemons", the daemon of the IRCNet.
+ngIRCd is a free, portable and lightweight Internet Relay Chat server for
+small or private networks, developed under the GNU General Public License
+(GPL; please see the file COPYING for details). It is simple to configure,
+can cope with dynamic IP addresses, and supports IPv6 as well as SSL. It is
+written from scratch and not based on the original IRCd.
+
+The name ngIRCd means next generation IRC daemon, which is a little bit
+exaggerated: lightweight Internet Relay Chat server most probably would be a
+better name :-)
