-The README is used to introduce the module and provide instructions on
-how to install the module, any machine dependencies it may have (for
-example C compilers and installed libraries) and any other information
-that should be provided before the module is installed.
+This library contains utility functions that we at Index Data want to
+share between multiple applications -- for example, the persistent
+counter used by both IRSpy (see issue IR-350) and MKHome (IR-351).
 
-A README file is required for CPAN modules since CPAN extracts the
-README file from a module distribution so that people browsing the
-archive can use it get an idea of the modules uses. It is usually a
-good idea to provide version information here so that people can
-decide whether fixes for the module are worth downloading.
