+ The Eazel Extensions Library is a collection of widgets and extensions
+to many modules of the GNOME platform. These widgets and extensions
+were developed by hackers working on Nautilus. For the duration of
+the Nautilus 1.0 development cycle, the code was internal to Nautilus
+and its components.
+
+ In order to make these useful extensions usable to other projects, we
+have decided to put then in their own library. It is possible that
+we will move even more extensions/widgets from Nautilus to Eel.
+
+ If you wish to use Eel for a project, have patches, suggestions and/or
+you wish to discuss whether some of the extensions belong in the
+library they extend, please send mail to the mailing list in section 1.
