+      <p>Node.js is a platform built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime
+	for easily building fast, scalable, network applications.  It uses
+	an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight
+	and efficient, perfect for data-intensive real-time applications
+	that run across distributed devices.</p>
+
+      <p>The goal of this project is to make it easy to install the
+	modules available on the <a href="http://npmjs.org/">npm package
+	registry</a>.</p>
+
+      <p>Currently, the repository contains more than 100 new ports,
+	in particular:</p>
+
+      <ul>
+	<li>CoffeeScript (a programming language that transcompiles to
+	  JavaScript)</li>
+	<li>node-gyp (allows building Node.js addons, often written in
+	  C or C++)</li>
+	<li>Request (a simplified HTTP client)</li>
+      </ul>
+
+      <p>We have also written several helpers for the porting, available
+	in our experimental repository.
