+
+WHAT IS THIS
+------------
+
+This folder contains necessary tool for generating a stripped down
+version of the Alignment API so that it can be embedded in a small
+platform (the target being the Android platform).
+
+WHAT IS INCLUDED
+----------------
+
+microalign.jar = Alignment API + implementation + parser
+	       - evaluation - matchers - server - util
+
+Only the libraries related to Jena are used:
+Jena (+ icu4j and iri), log4j, xerces (+resolver) and xsdlib (+relaxngDatatype).
+
+OTHER PROFILES
+--------------
+
+Of course, you can define other profiles by modifying the build.xml file.
+
+We are considering, introducing a pair of other profiles:
+- picoalign: an even smaller package without jena and edoal
+- aservlite: a minimal Alignment server version
+
+HOW TO GENERATE
+---------------
+
+$ ant compileall              ==> compile the strict necessary
+$ ant jar                     ==> generate the microalign.jar library
+$ ant zip                     ==> gerenate the malign.zip file with necessary jars
+
+HOW TO USE
+----------
+
+Move the content of the zip file in the lib(s) directory of your Android
+project.
+
+The microalign.jar may be used alone if a version of Jena is already embedded.
