 gstreamer-sharp
-===============
+=========
 
-Bindings for gstreamer-1.0 generated from introspection data
+gstreamer-sharp is a .NET/mono binding for Gstreamer generated from gobject-introspection data using the [bindinator]. gstreamer-sharp currently wraps the API exposed by Gstreamer 1.4 and is compatible with newer gstreamer versions. It was developed under GSoC 2014 for the mono organization.
+gstreamer-sharp covers the core and base gstreamer libraries.
 
-Compilation
-==============
+Prerequisites
+----
+These libraries are needed for clutter-sharp to compile:
+* [gtk-sharp] 2.99.4 or higher
+* gstreamer core, base and good 1.4 or higher
+
+Building & Installing
+----
+Simply type ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr && make install
+
+Supported Platforms
+----
+* Linux
+* Mac OS X
+
+Quick Start
+----
+gstreamer-sharp provides ports of all samples from the gstreamer SDK in the samples folder. 
+
+Documentation
+----
+Since this is a gobject-introspection binding the recommended documentation is the native [gstreamer](http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gstreamer/html/) documentation. A monodoc generated documentation will be installed.
+
+Roadmap
+----
+* Add an easy way to compile on Windows
+* iOS and Android support
+* Provide binaries for these platforms
