+Please see TODO for future plans.
+
+This plugin currently provides a dbus service, which is not yet automatically
+activated, but can be started manually by running 'bzr dbus-broadcast'. This
+service allows programs to subscribe to dbus notification of new revisions.
+This service is fully documented in its python code - see 'pydoc
+bzrlib.plugins.dbus.activity.Broadcast'.
+
+The plugin also uses a bzr hook to notify the broadcast service of new
+revisions in branches, allowing other programs to react when bzr completes a
+push/pull/commit/uncommit. This should be useful for IDE's and other editors
+working in the same space as bzr, or for integration with network services.
