-What is BEINC?
---------------
-
-Blackmore's Enchanced IRC Notification Collection (BEINC) is a free set of
-components that aims to provide a complete system for different
-on-screen-display notification scenarios.
-
-The current version of BEINC contains the following components:
-beinc_server.py - server used for queueing or providing on-screen-display (OSD)
-beinc_poller.py - client used to fetch enqueued messages from beinc_server.py
-                  and provide OSD
-beinc_weechat.py - a complete script / client for the Weechat IRC client >=0.4.0
-                   used to push notification messages to beinc_server.py
-beinc_generic_client.py - a simple client used to push notification messages
-                          to beinc_server.py
-                          Its main purpose is to provide a convenient way to 
-                          test beinc_server.py (and beinc_poller.py) as well as
-                          to serve as an example for how to develop BEINC-clients
-+ documentation and a sample configuration file (beinc_config_sample.json)
-

-Why should I use BEINC and what has it done for me lately?
-----------------------------------------------------------
-
-BEINC is a free-software, licensed under the GPL3. It gives you the freedoms
-of using it, studying it and modifying it.
-
-BEINC is designed to assist you two common scenarios. 
-As an example we will consider the case of an IRC cliet, although BEINC can be
-used by any client that conforms with BEINC's "messaging protocol".
-
-We have the common situation where a user is accessing an IRC client located on
-a different computer (typically: weechat, irssi, etc. running on a remote server)
-The IRC client receives a private message (or any event that requires the user's
-attention) and the user has to be notified.
-No matter which of the two scenarios applies to your needs, you should start by
- - setting up a BEINC client similar to beinc_generic_client.py on the server
-   If you are running weechat >=0.4.0, this version of BEINC comes with 
-   a complete weechat BEINC-client: beinc_weechat.py
-   Configure the client to send notifications to the beinc_server.py
-N.B. Using encryption is important in these days and age.
-
-Scenario one: 
-The user's computer can be reached by the server running the IRC client.
-If the server (running the IRC client) is able to connect to 
-a specified TCP port on the user's computer, this is sufficient for BEINC to
-directly notify the user. Solution:
- - set up the beinc_server.py on the desktop workstation (the computer where the
-   notification-message should be displayed). Define an unprivileged port for 
-   beinc_server.py to listen on and enable its OSD capabilities 
-   (through pynotify)
-
-Scenario two:
-The user's computer can NOT be reached by the server running the IRC client.
-This scenario is typical for users that are working on computers that can not
-be reached from outside.
-Solution:
- - find a server that can be reached by the server running the IRC client.
- - set up the beinc_server.py on it. No OSD capabilities are needed (no X11).
-   Define instance(s) for queueing. Define a queue size 
-   (how many notifications to store) for each of them.
- - set up beinc_poller.py on the desktop workstation (the computer where the
-   notification-message should be displayed).
-   beinc_poller.py should be able to access the server running beinc_server.py
-   Polling interval of 5 seconds should be enough for most users.
-
-Read beinc_config_sample.json.readme for details on how to setup 
-beinc_server.py and beinc_weechat.py!
-Use "-h" command line parameter to display the available options for
-beinc_poller.py and beinc_generic_client.py
-Each configured beinc_server.py instance has an unique name.
-There are 2 operations that can be done on an instance:
- - push - a client is sending a notification to the BEINC server.
-          A push is available for all instances.
- - pull - a poller (f.i. beinc_poller.py) is fetching data from the instance-queue.
-          A pull is available only for instances defined for queueing. 
-          (read beinc_config_sample.json.readme for details!)
-Example: 
-If you defined a beinc_server.py instance with SSL-support,
-your URL will be: https://hostname:port
-
