 h2. The ECHI (External Call History Interface) Converter 
 
-Provides a Ruby based utility for fetching Avaya CMS / ECHI files in binary/ASCII form from an FTP server, converting them, if necessary, to ASCII and then inserting them into a database via ActiveRecord.
+Provides a Ruby based utility for fetching Avaya CMS / ECHI files in binary/ASCII form from an FTP server, converting them, if necessary, to ASCII and then inserting them into a database via ActiveRecord.  With this
+utility you only need the standard Avaya CMS Release 13 or better without any additional software or utilities
+from Avaya, as this utility will process either binary or ASCII output from the Avaya CMS.
 
 h2. Status
 
-This is the beta release now in production use within Call Centers using Avaya CMS.  The utility successfully and reliably imports the data provided by the Avaya CMS ECHI into various databases, including Oracle and MySQL.  This provides the repository of call segments that may then be used to provide detailed Cradle to Grave reporting for the call center.
