+mozboot - Bootstrap your system to build Mozilla projects
+=========================================================
+
+This package contains code used for bootstrapping a system to build
+mozilla-central.
+
+This code is not part of the build system per se. Instead, it is related
+to everything up to invoking the actual build system.
+
+If you have a copy of the source tree, you run:
+
+ python bin/bootstrap.py
+
+If you don't have a copy of the source tree, you can run:
+
+ curl https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/raw-file/default/python/mozboot/bin/bootstrap.py -o bootstrap.py
+ python bootstrap.py
+
+The bootstrap script will download everything it needs from hg.mozilla.org
+automatically!
