 Octave Python Interface
 =======================
 
-This project is for development of a native Python calling interface for
-[GNU Octave](http://www.octave.org).
-
-Goals
------
-
-The goals of this extension include
-
-* call any loadable Python modules, classes, and functions
-* automatic translation of certain Octave data types into Python
-  arguments
-* hold reference to and performing operations on any Python data type as
-  Octave variables
-* automatic translation of certain Python data types into Octave return
-  values
-* be as compatible as possible with Matlab's own Python calling
-  interface
-
-Examples
---------
-
-A few examples are listed here to give a brief introduction to how the
-Python runtime is translated to Octave.
-
-Add a directory to the Python module search path
-
-    py.sys.path.insert (int32 (0), "/path/to/module");
-
-Use a vectorized NumPy function
-
-    x = py.numpy.sqrt (1:10);
-
-Call a function with keyword arguments
-
-    a = py.int ("5ba0", pyargs ("base", int32 (16)));
-
-Read an entire text file into a string
-
-    s = py.str ().join (py.open ("/etc/passwd").readlines ());
+Development on the Python language interface continues in the Pythonic package!
 
-Installation
-------------
-
-There is currently no support for installing this project as an Octave
-package or in a system or user directory for regular use. This is
-intentional, since the project is still being developed and is not
-stable enough for actual use yet.
-
-What is supported is building and running the project from the build
-directory. Building requires Octave and Python development libraries and
-GNU autotools.
-
-1. `hg clone https://bitbucket.org/mtmiller/pytave`
-2. `cd pytave`
-3. `autoreconf -i`
-4. `./configure`
-5. `make`
-6. Run Octave with the build directory added to the load path
+This repository has been converted and moved, the current development
+repository can be found at https://gitlab.com/mtmiller/octave-pythonic
 
-Development
------------
-
-We welcome all contributors, bug reports, test results, and ideas for
-improvement. Contributions in any of the following forms, in no
-particular order, are needed and appreciated.
-
-* Testing on different operating systems and in different environments
-* Testing for full functionality with a variety of Python libraries
-* Bug reports detailing problems encountered or unexpected behavior
-* Code contributions
-* Documentation in the form of examples, improvements to help texts, or
-  some sort of user manual
-
