+Note: This package is **deprecated**. It is highly preferred that instead of
+using this code base that instead `fasteners`_ or `oslo.concurrency`_ is
+used instead. For any questions or comments or further help needed
+please email `openstack-dev`_ and prefix your email subject
+with ``[oslo][pylockfile]`` (for a faster response).
+
+The lockfile package exports a LockFile class which provides a simple API for
+locking files.  Unlike the Windows msvcrt.locking function, the fcntl.lockf
+and flock functions, and the deprecated posixfile module, the API is
+identical across both Unix (including Linux and Mac) and Windows platforms.
+The lock mechanism relies on the atomic nature of the link (on Unix) and
+mkdir (on Windows) system calls.  An implementation based on SQLite is also
+provided, more as a demonstration of the possibilities it provides than as
+production-quality code.
+
+Note: In version 0.9 the API changed in two significant ways:
+
+ * It changed from a module defining several classes to a package containing
+   several modules, each defining a single class.
+
+ * Where classes had been named SomethingFileLock before the last two words
+   have been reversed, so that class is now SomethingLockFile.
+
+The previous module-level definitions of LinkFileLock, MkdirFileLock and
+SQLiteFileLock will be retained until the 1.0 release.
+
+To install:
+
+    python setup.py install
