+Linux Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) subsystem
+=============================================
+
+The main development site and CVS repository for these
+drivers is http://linuxtv.org/.
+
+The developer mailing list linux-dvb is also hosted there,
+see http://linuxtv.org/mailinglists.xml. Please check
+the archive http://linuxtv.org/mailinglists/linux-dvb/
+before asking newbie questions on the list.
+
+API documentation, utilities and test/example programs
+are available as part of the old driver package for Linux 2.4
+(linuxtv-dvb-1.0.x.tar.gz), or from CVS (module DVB).
+We plan to split this into separate packages, but it's not
+been done yet.
