-This package contains the binary release of the robust audio tool
-(RAT), a multicast and unicast conferencing application.
+RAT is a network audio tool that allows users to particpate in
+audio conferences over the internet. These can be between two
+participants directly, or between a group of participants on a
+common multicast group. RAT features sender based loss mitigation
+mechanisms and receiver based audio repair techniques to compensate
+for packet loss, and load adaption in response to host performance.
