+# ooo-user
+
+Welcome to the past. This is some user management code built on top of even more ancient
+[samskivert] user management code that was/is used in a bunch of [Three Rings] games.
+
+It's still actually used by operating games (now run by [Grey Havens] who are looking after said
+games into their senescence) which is why it's out here on Github so that we can ship releases of
+it to Maven Central and whatnot.
+
+The library itself is your standard "maintain a user database" kind of blah blah. Nothing exciting
+and certainly nothing that should be used for new projects.
+
+So unless you're some kind of archaeologist, you probably want to move it along.
