 ============================================
  VERA Fingervein Database Interface for Bob
 ============================================
 
-This package contains an interface for the evaluation protocols of the `VERA
+This package is part of the signal-processing and machine learning toolbox
+Bob_. It contains an interface for the evaluation protocols of the `VERA
 Fingervein Database`_. Notice this package does not contain the raw data files
 from this dataset, which need to be obtained through the link above.
 
 
-About
------
+Installation
+------------
+
+Follow our `installation`_ instructions. Then, using the Python interpreter
+provided by the distribution, bootstrap and buildout this package::
 
-This package is currently developed at the `Biometrics group`_ at the `Idiap
-Research Institute`_.
+  $ python bootstrap-buildout.py
+  $ ./bin/buildout
 
 
-Installation
-------------
+Contact
+-------
 
-This package only contains database access functions so it is easy to
-programatically reproduce evaluation results obtained in papers. You normally
-don't install this package, unless you're modifying it. Instead, install one of
-our top-level frameworks for vein image processing, such as ``bob.bio.vein``.
+For questions or reporting issues to this software package, contact our
+development `mailing list`_.
