-What is deal.II?
-
-  deal.II is a C++ program library targeted at the computational solution
-  of partial differential equations using adaptive finite elements. It uses
-  state-of-the-art programming techniques to offer you a modern interface
-  to the complex data structures and algorithms required.
-
-For the impatient:
-
-  Configure compile and install the deal.II library with:
-
-  $ mkdir build
-  $ cd build
-  $ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/where/deal.II/should/be/intalled/to ..
-  $ make install    (alternatively $ make -j<N> install)
-  $ make test
-
-  A detailed ReadME can be found at ./doc/readme.html and
-  ./doc/users/cmake.html or at http://www.dealii.org/.
-
-Getting started:
-
-  The tutorial steps are located under ./examples
-  Information about the tutorial steps can be found at
-  ./doc/doxygen/tutorial/index.html or at http://www.dealii.org/.
