+                          Apache Axis2/C Util
+                          ====================
+
+  What is it?
+  -----------
+  Axis2/C Util project is supposed to contain some utilities which are going to be
+  used across the Axis2/C platform. Initially this was inside Axis2/C code base
+  as util folder. But as the project expands and as related projects were emerging
+  there was a need to use those utilities across those projects of Axis2 C platform.
+  The resulting was springing of a new project called Axis2 C/Util.
+  
+  As a project of the Apache Software Foundation, the
+  developers aim to collaboratively develop and maintain a robust,
+  commercial-grade, standards-based Web Services stack implementation with
+  freely available source code.
