+NASM, the Netwide Assembler
+===========================
+
+[![master](https://travis-ci.org/netwide-assembler/nasm.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/netwide-assembler/nasm)
+
+Many many developers all over the net respect NASM for what it is:
+a widespread (thus netwide), portable (thus netwide!), very flexible
+and mature assembler tool with support for many output formats (thus netwide!!).
+
+Now we have good news for you: NASM is licensed under the "simplified"
+[(2-clause) BSD license](https://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause).
+This means its development is open to even wider society of programmers
+wishing to improve their lovely assembler.
+
+Visit our [nasm.us](https://www.nasm.us/) website for more details.
+
+With best regards, the NASM crew.
