-Requirements:
-=============
-    Generic:
-        Bitcoin >=0.6.4
-        Python
-        Twisted
-        python-argparse (for Python <=2.6)
-    
-    Linux:
-        sudo apt-get install python-zope.interface python-twisted python-twisted-web
-        sudo apt-get install python-argparse # if on Python 2.6 or older
-    
-    Windows:
-        Install Python 2.7: http://www.python.org/getit/
-        Install Twisted: http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/Downloads
-        Install Zope.Interface: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zope.interface/3.8.0

-Running P2Pool:
-=============
-    To use P2Pool, you must be running your own local bitcoind. For standard
-    configurations, using P2Pool should be as simple as:
-
-        python run_p2pool.py
-
-    Then run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 9332 with any
-    username and password.
-
-    If you are behind a NAT, you should enable TCP port forwarding on your
-    router. Forward port 9333 to the host running P2Pool.
-
-    Run "python run_p2pool.py --help" for additional options.

-Notes for Litecoin:
-=============
-    Requirements:
-        In order to run P2Pool with the Litecoin network, you would need to build and install the
-        ltc_scrypt module that includes the scrypt proof of work code that Litecoin uses for hashes.
-
-        Linux:
-            cd litecoin_scrypt
-            sudo python setup.py install
-
-        Windows:
-            Install MinGW: http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Getting_Started
-            Install Python 2.7: http://www.python.org/getit/
-
-            cd litecoin_scrypt
-            C:\Python27\python.exe setup.py build --compile=mingw32 install
-
-            If you run into an error with unrecognized command line option '-mno-cygwin', see this:
-                http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6034390/compiling-with-cython-and-mingw-produces-gcc-error-unrecognized-command-line-o
-    
-    Running P2Pool:
-        Run P2Pool with the "--net litecoin" option.
-        Run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 9327.
-        Forward port 9338 to the host running P2Pool.
-        
-        Litecoin's use of ports 9332 and 9332 conflicts with P2Pool running on
-        the Bitcoin network. To avoid problems, add these lines to litecoin.conf
-        and restart litecoind:
-            rpcport=10332
-            port=10333
