-Library providing binary-decimal and decimal-binary routines for IEEE
-doubles.
+This project (double-conversion) provides binary-decimal and
+decimal-binary routines for IEEE doubles.
+
+The library consists of efficient conversion routines that have been
+extracted from the V8 JavaScript engine. The code has been refactored
+and improved so that it can be used more easily in other projects.
