+Roundcube Framework
+===================
+
+INTRODUCTION
+------------
+The Roundcube Framework is the basic library used for the Roundcube Webmail
+application. It is an extract of classes providing the core functionality for
+an email system. They can be used individually or as package for the following
+tasks:
+
+- IMAP mailbox access with optional caching
+- MIME message handling
+- Email message creation and sending through SMTP
+- General caching utilities using the local database
+- Database abstraction using PDO
+- VCard parsing and writing
+
+
+INSTALLATION
+------------
+Copy all files of this directory to your project or install it in the default
+include_path directory of your webserver. Some classes of the framework require
+one or multiple of the following [PEAR][pear] libraries:
+
+- Mail_Mime 1.8.1 or newer
+- Mail_mimeDecode 1.5.5 or newer
+- Net_SMTP (latest from https://github.com/pear/Net_SMTP/)
+- Net_IDNA2 0.1.1 or newer
+- Auth_SASL 1.0.6 or newer
+
+
+USAGE
+-----
+The Roundcube Framework provides a bootstrapping file which registers an
+autoloader and sets up the environment necessary for the Roundcube classes.
+In order to make use of the framework, simply include the bootstrap.php file
+from this directory in your application and start using the classes by simply
+instantiating them.
+
+If you wanna use more complex functionality like IMAP access with database
+caching or plugins, the rcube singleton helps you loading the necessary files:
+
+```php
+<?php
+
+define('RCUBE_CONFIG_DIR',  '<path-to-config-directory>');
+define('RCUBE_PLUGINS_DIR', '<path-to-roundcube-plugins-directory');
+
+require_once '<path-to-roundcube-framework/bootstrap.php';
+
+$rcube = rcube::get_instance(rcube::INIT_WITH_DB | rcube::INIT_WITH_PLUGINS);
+$imap = $rcube->get_storage();
+
+// do cool stuff here...
+
+?>
+```
