-# RBot - The Ruby IRC Bot
+# Rbot - The Ruby IRC Bot
 
-rbot is a ruby IRC bot. Think of him as a ruby bot framework with a highly
-modular design based around plugins.
+[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/ruby-rbot/rbot.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/ruby-rbot/rbot)
 
-## Fork Changelog
+rbot is designed around a flexible plugin system and is not only easy to
+extend, but it already includes many useful plugins. Some of the powerful
+features include:
 
-- Drops ruby 1.8 support, ruby >= 1.9.3 is required.
-- Ruby 2.1.0 is supported.
-- Removes a lot of broken/outdated plugins.
-- Removes the DRb remote interface due to its abysmal security.
-- Introduces a [web service](https://github.com/4poc/rbot/wiki/Web-Service).
-- Registry is now supporting DBM (that requires no external dependencies).
+* Runtime configuration via irc
+* Flexible authentication and permission system
+* Plugin architecture that makes writing new plugins a breeze
+* Integrated web service
+* Batteries included: plugins for rss, twitter, imdb, translations, weather, notifications, lots of games and many more (over 70 plugins included)
 
-## Known Problems

-* DBM (if using Barkeley DB) is requiring manual repairs to work after
-a crash.
