+# Current Status of Project Connected Home over IP
+
+The Zigbee Alliance officially opened the Project Connected Home over IP
+(Project CHIP) Working Group on January 17 and is in the process of drafting the
+specification.
+
+The Project’s design and technical processes are intended to be open and
+transparent to the general public, including to Work Group non-members wherever
+possible. The availability of this GitHub repository and its source code under
+an Apache v2 license is an important and demonstrable step to achieving this
+commitment.
+
+The Project endeavors to bring together the best aspects of market-tested
+technologies and to redeploy them as a unified and cohesive whole-system
+solution. The overall goal of this approach is to bring the benefits of the
+Project to consumers and manufacturers as quickly as possible. As a result, what
+you observe in this repository is an implementation-first approach to the
+technical specification, vetting integrations in practice.
