+Unbound README
+* ./configure && make && make install
+* on BSDs and Solaris use gmake (GNU make).
+* If it complains that no libevent can be found; libevent is useful when
+  using many (10000) outgoing ports. By default 16 ports are used and the
+  builtin alternative is equally capable.
+* More detailed README, README.svn, README.tests in doc directory
+* manual pages can be found in doc directory, and are installed, unbound(8).
+* example configuration file doc/example.conf
