-<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...

-uClibc is maintained by <a href=

-and is licensed under the
-<a href="http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/lesser.html">GNU LESSER 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.
