 BabelTrace - Trace Format Babel Tower
-Mathieu Desnoyers, EfficiOS Inc.
-September 2010
 
 This project provides trace read and write libraries, as well as a trace
 converter. A plugin can be created for any trace format to allow its conversion
 to/from another trace format.
 
+The main format expected to be converted to/from is the Common Trace
+Format (CTF). The latest version of the CTF specification can be found at:
+
+  git tree:   git://git.efficios.com/ctf.git
+  gitweb:     http://git.efficios.com/?p=ctf.git
+
+The CE Workgroup of the Linux Foundation, Ericsson, and EfficiOS have
+sponsored this work.
+
+The current maintainers are:
+  Jérémie Galarneau <jeremie.galarneau@efficios.com>
+  Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>
