+### Mozilla overlay
+###
+
+1: Purpose of this overlay
+
+  The purpose of this overlay is to provide alpha & beta ebuilds for 
+  Mozilla's software before being released. This helps not only the 
+  Gentoo maintainers, but also upstream, to weed out any bugs in the 
+  build system or ebuilds before a release is made to public. Or to 
+  experiment with the official ebuilds without causing breakage to 
+  main tree users. 
+
+
+2: Compatibility with main tree
+
+  While the overlay doesn't have to adhere to main tree's QA 
+  standards, it'd be most convenient in tryint to write the ebuilds 
+  by keeping the main tree compatibility in mind. This way, 
+  long-term, the ebuilds will be much more maintainable. 
+
+
+3: Access
+
+  All members of the Gentoo's Mozilla project have commit access to 
+  this repository. For other interested parties, access can be 
+  requested via bugzilla, or by e-mailing the project directly.
