-
-## How To Manually Build And Install The albacore Gem
-
-If you would like to install the latest source code for albacore, and get all the new features and functionality (possibly in an unstable form), you can manually build and install the albacore gem. Follow these simple instructions and you will be good to go.
-
-**Step 1:** Clone albacore
-
-Use your Github account to fork albacore, or clone it directly from my public clone URL.
-
-> git clone git://github.com/derickbailey/albacore.git albacore
-
-**Step 2:** Install Required Dependencies
-
-You will need the Bundler gem installed, to install the other albacore dependencies
-
-> gem install bundler
-
-In your local clone of albacore, run bundler
-
-> bundle install
-
-This will install all of the gem dependencies that you need to build the albacore gem and add your own contributions to albacore.
-
-**Step 3:** Build the gem
-
-In your local clone of albacore, use the jeweler rake tasks to build the latest version of the albacore code into a gem.
-
-> rake jeweler:gemspec jeweler:build
-
-this will produce an 'albacore-#.#.#.gem' file in the 'pkg' folder, where '#.#.#' is the version number. For example 'albacore-0.1.2.gem'.
-
-**Step 4:** Install the gem
-
-After building the gem, you can install it from your local file system.
-
-> gem install -l pkg/albacore-#.#.#.gem
-
-where '#.#.#' is the version number of the gem. For example 'albacore-0.1.2.gem'
+albacore is a suite of Rake tasks to automate the process of building a .NET based system. It's like MSBuild or Nant... but without all the stabby-bracket xmlhell.
 
 ## How To Use albacore
 
-On systems do not have the "RUBYOPT" environment variable set to automatically include rubygems, you may need to add
-
-    require 'rubygems'
-
-to the top of your rakefile. Then, you can add
-
-    require 'albacore'
-
-to your rakefile. This will allow you to use the tasks that albacore includes.  
+Check out the [albacore Wiki](http://wiki.github.com/derickbailey/albacore) for detailed instructions on how to use the built in tasks and their options.
