+
+This is c-ares, an asynchronous resolver library. It is intended for
+applications which need to perform DNS queries without blocking, or need to
+perform multiple DNS queries in parallel. The primary examples of such
+applications are servers which communicate with multiple clients and programs
+with graphical user interfaces.
+
+The full source code is available in the ['c-ares' release archives](https://c-ares.org/download/),
+and in a git repository: https://github.com/c-ares/c-ares. See the
+[INSTALL.md](INSTALL.md) file for build information.
+
+If you find bugs, correct flaws, have questions or have comments in general in
+regard to c-ares (or by all means the original ares too), get in touch with us
+on the c-ares mailing list: https://lists.haxx.se/listinfo/c-ares
+
+c-ares is of course distributed under the same MIT-style license as the
+original ares.
+
+You'll find all c-ares details and news here:

+
+Notes for c-ares hackers
+------------------------
+
+* The distributed `ares_build.h` file is only intended to be used on systems
+ which can not run the also distributed configure script.
+
+* The distributed `ares_build.h` file is generated as a copy of `ares_build.h.dist`
+ when the c-ares source code distribution archive file is originally created.
+
+* If you check out from git on a non-configure platform, you must run the
+ appropriate `buildconf*` script to set up `ares_build.h` and other local files
+ before being able to compile the library.
+
+* On systems capable of running the `configure` script, the `configure` process
+ will overwrite the distributed `ares_build.h` file with one that is suitable
+ and specific to the library being configured and built, this new file is
+ generated from the `ares_build.h.in` template file.
+
+* If you intend to distribute an already compiled c-ares library you **MUST**
+ also distribute along with it the generated `ares_build.h` which has been
+ used to compile it. Otherwise the library will be of no use for the users of
+ the library that you have built. It is **your** responsibility to provide this
+ file. No one at the c-ares project can know how you have built the library.
+
+* File `ares_build.h` includes platform and configuration dependent info,
+ and must not be modified by anyone. Configure script generates it for you.
+
+* We cannot assume anything else but very basic compiler features being
+ present. While c-ares requires an ANSI C compiler to build, some of the
+ earlier ANSI compilers clearly can't deal with some preprocessor operators.
+
+* Newlines must remain unix-style for older compilers' sake.
+
+* Comments must be written in the old-style /* unnested C-fashion */
+
+* Try to keep line lengths below 80 columns.
