+BitchX-1.1-Final Readme file by sin <sin@bitchx.org>
+======================================================
+
+BitchX is an IRC (Internet Relay Chat) client by Colten Edwards aka
+panasync@efnet. BitchX was originally based on ircII 2.8, but is currently
+based on the ircii-EPIC4 releases by Jeremy Nelson.
+
+BitchX was originally started as a script by Trench and HappyCrappy
+for the popular UNIX IRC client ircII. Around Christmas of 1994 the
+script was patched directly into the client by panasync. 
+
+Now in 2004 we are looking to revive the development of the client by merging
+it back to the current release of Epic and cleaning some of the features
+that are no longer needed or supported and moving on with the building of
+a whole new client.  10 years of BitchX and we're not nearly done yet.
+
+The new client will be based upon the final release of EPIC4 and will exclude
+a great number of the old features such as support for OS/2 and GTK which was
+very old and bloated plus there were problems with the gtk client causing
+quite a hit to the CPU.  The upside is that the client will be pulled back
+into a sane code base.  Less bloat and overhead is always good for you the
+user.
+
+For persons interested in becoming involved in the new project please visit
+our forums website at http://www.cyberpunkz.org or join EFnet #BitchX.
+
+A special thanks to panasync.
