 == Installation
 
-This projects homepage is at http://intervals.rubyforge.org and its
-cockpit at http://rubyforge.org/projects/intervals .
+This project is hosted on
+RubyForge[http://rubyforge.org/projects/intervals] and you can browse
+its documentation[http://intervals.rubyforge.org] on-line.
 
-You can download the library from http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=1458 .
+The installation is trivial with
+RubyGems[http://docs.rubygems.org/]: just type
 
-You can browse the project
-repository[http://rubyforge.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/trunk?root=intervals].
+  gem install --remote intervals
 
-To compile the C extension, go into the directory with the project files and type
+on the command-line. In alternative, you can manually download the library[http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=1458] and compile the C extensions
 
   ruby extconf.rb
   make
 
-On a unix-like system you can type
-
-  ./extconf.rb && make
+You can also browse the project SCM
+repository[http://rubyforge.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/trunk?root=intervals].
 
 == Testing
 
-Executing interval.rb runs the library testsuite.
+A testsuite is included with the library, which can be run from within ruby:
+
+  require 'interval'
+  Test::Unit::AutoRunner.run
