+<h3>A C library for embedded Linux</h3>
+
+uClibc (aka µClibc/pronounced yew-see-lib-see) is a C library for developing
+embedded Linux systems.  It is much smaller than the <a
+href="http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/libc.html">GNU C Library</a>, but nearly
+all applications supported by glibc also work perfectly with uClibc. Porting
+applications from glibc to uClibc typically involves just recompiling the
+source code. uClibc even supports shared libraries and threading.  It currently
+runs on <a href="http://kernel.org/">standard Linux</a> and <a
+href="http://www.uclinux.org">MMU-less (also known as µClinux)</a> systems with
+support for alpha, ARM, cris, i386, i960, h8300, m68k, mips/mipsel, PowerPC,
+SH, SPARC, and v850 processors.
+
+<p>
+
+If you are building an embedded Linux system and you find that
+glibc is eating up too much space, you may want to consider using
+uClibc.  If you are building a huge fileserver with 12 Terabytes
+of storage, then using glibc may make more sense.  Unless, for
+example, that 12 Terabytes will be Network Attached Storage and
+you plan to burn Linux into the system's firmware...
+
+<p>
+
+uClibc is maintained by <a href=
+"http://codepoet.org/andersen/erik/erik.html">Erik Andersen</a>
+and is licensed under the 
+<a href="http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/lgpl.html">GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE</a>
+.  This license allows you to make closed source commercial applications using 
+uClibc. (Please consider sharing some of the money you make ;-).  You do not need 
+to give away all your source code just because you use uClibc and/or run on Linux.
+See the <a href="FAQ.html">list of Frequently Asked Questions</a> for details.
