-Library for decoding .opus files, including seeking support.
+The opusfile and opusurl libraries provide a high-level API for
+decoding and seeking within .opus files on disk or over http(s).
+
+opusfile depends on libopus and libogg.
+opusurl depends on opusfile and openssl.
+
+The library is functional, but there are likely issues
+we didn't find in our own testing. Please give feedback
+in #opus on irc.freenode.net or at [email protected].

+Programming documentation is available in tree and online at
