+This 'hpcdtoppm' directory is really just a placeholder for the real
+Hpcdtoppm source code.  
+
+The real Hpcdtoppm source code cannot be distributed on Sourceforge
+because a copyright holder does not license it in a way open enough to
+meet Sourceforge's requirements.
+
+Therefore, the Netpbm maintainer distributes Hpcdtoppm via another channel
+and distributes this dummy directory in the main Netpbm source tree on 
+Sourceforge.  When you run the program named 'hpcdtoppm' in this directory,
+it tells you how to get the real Hpcdtoppm.
+
+When you get the real Hpcdtoppm tarball, just unpack it and replace
+this entire 'hpcdtoppm' directory with its contents.  Then build
+Netpbm normally.
+
+Bear in mind when you get the real Hpcdtoppm, that it is not as openly
+licensed as what's in the rest of the Netpbm source tree.  As you'll
+see in the license that comes with Hpcdtoppm, you may _not_ sell it to
+someone else.)
