+## Minimal FreeSWITCH Configuration
+
+The default "vanilla" configuration that comes with FreeSWITCH has
+been designed as a showcase of the configurability of the myriad of
+features that FreeSWITCH comes with out of the box. While it is very
+helpful in tinkering with FreeSWITCH, it has a lot of extraneous stuff
+enabled/configured for use in a production system. This configuration
+aims to take the reverse stance -- it attempts to be a starting point
+for configuring a new system by "adding" required features (instead of
+removing them as one would do if one starts with the default
+configuration).
