+The unixODBC Project goals are to develop and promote unixODBC to be the
+definitive standard for ODBC on non MS Windows platforms. This is to
+include GUI support for both KDE and GNOME. ODBC is an open specification
+for providing application developers with a predictable API with which to
+access Data Sources. Data Sources include SQL Servers and any Data Source
+with an ODBC Driver.
+
+This will be compiled without GUI support since the version of Qt shipped
+with Slackware is too new for it; if you want to give it a try, edit the
+build script and comment out the "--disable-gui" configure argument.
