+libax25 AX.25 Packet radio support for linux.
+
+The AX.25 protocol offers both connected and connectionless modes of operation,
+and is used either by itself for point-point links, or to carry other protocols
+such as TCP/IP and NET/ROM.
+
+It is similar to X.25 level 2 in structure, with some extensions to make it
+more useful in the amateur radio environment.
+
+This library is for ham radio applications that use the ax25 protocol.
+Included are routines to do ax25 address parsing, common ax25 application
+config file parsing, etc.
