 Due to the fact that we support only the production and the development versions,
 for now only 2 branchs are present: *master*, and *devel*. 
 
-* *master* is the stable branch. Production tags are created starting from this branch.
-* *devel* is the development branch. Tags created starting from this branch are subject to a certification process.
-
-The following diagram highlights the interactions between the branches and the merging and tagging strategy:

-
-For now, actually there are no tags created yet, so we've always used the HEAD of the branches.

-Repositories
-============
-
-Developers should have 2 remote repositories (which is the typical GitHub workflow):
-
-* *origin* : cloned from your private fork done on GitHub
-* *upstream* : add it via git remote add upstream and pointing to the blessed repository: [email protected]:DIRACGrid/Pilot.git (or https://github.com/DIRACGrid/Pilot.git using https protocol)
+* *master* is the stable branch.
+* *devel* is the development branch.
 
 Issue Tracking
 ==============
 
 Issue tracking for the project is [here in github](https://github.com/DIRACGrid/Pilot/issues). 
-
-
-Code quality
-============
-
-The contributions are subject to reviews.
-
-Pylint is run regularly on the source code. The .pylintrc file defines the expected coding rules and peculiarities.
-
-
-Testing
-======
-
-Unit tests are provided within the source code. Integration, regression and system tests are instead in the tests directory.

+# Dirac Pilots
+
+The Dirac interware is a software framework for distributed computing, 
+providing a complete solution to one or more user community requiring access to distributed resources.
+Dirac builds a layer between the users and the resources offering a common interface to a number of heterogeneous providers,
+integrating them in a seamless manner, providing interoperability, at the same time as an optimized, transparent and reliable usage of the resources.
+
+The Pilot repository is an independent part of the Dirac system dedicated to the development of Dirac Pilots.
