+Firestorm Viewer is an alternative client program for SecondLife, a
+virtual world developed by Linden Lab accessible via the internet.
+
+Firestorm Viewer is based on Linden Lab's Viewer versions 2 and 3.
+It has loads of new and innovative features added to improve
+performance, increase usability, and generally enhance the user's
+overall experience.
+
+Firestorm Viewer is a 32 bit application and does not run on standard
+64 bit systems.
+
+NOTE: Linden Lab have stated they intend to begin rolling out Server
+Side Appearance (formerly known as Server Side Baking) on July 9th
+or shortly thereafter. It is of paramount importance that all
+Firestorm users upgrade to 4.4.1 before the 9th of July.
+
+NOTE: the Phoenix Firestorm project require that you do a clean
+install when upgrading to version 4.4.1 from a previous version.
+A detailed documention of the procedure is available at
+http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/doku.php?id=fs_clean_reinstall .
+
+NOTE: this SlackBuild is made for the Opensim release of Firestorm.
+It can be used for the Second Life main grid and beta grid as well.
+However, if you require those features specific to the Havoc release
+of Firestorm you should use the standard release of Firestorm for
+which a separate package is available. Both packages can be installed
+in parallel on the same Slackware installation.
