+What is EzBuild?
+=========================
+
+EzBuild is a release building metatool used by reGen2 Linux that allows
+developers to synchronize Portage tree with Gentoo, as well as, to build
+custom reGen2 releases and templates. It is designed to interface with
+a package manager, so that users can easily build their own releases of
+reGen2 Linux or other Linux based operating systems.
+
+EzBuild is capable of:
+ * building installation stages
+ * building bootable LiveCD/DVD/USB
+ * building custom Portage trees
+
+From a developer perspective, you can view EzBuild as a complete redesign
+of Gentoo's Catalyst and Funtoo's Metro tools - deriving they strengths
+and addressing they weaknesses.
