Hello Jenkins Builder,

I'd like you to reexamine a change.  Please visit

    https://gerrit.osmocom.org/1241

to look at the new patch set (#2).

cosmetic: tweak README

I noticed that the README is prominently shown on github, so it makes sense
to get rid of the worst typos and misinformation there.

+== Summary ==
+
+This code implements Layer 2 and higher of a more or less conventional GSM BTS
+(Base Transceiver Station) - however, using an Abis/IP interface, rather than
+the old-fashioned E1/T1.
 
 Specifically, this includes
- * BTS-Side implementation of TS 08.58 (RSL) and TS 12.21 (OML)
- * BTS-Side implementation of LAPDm (using libosmocore/libosmogsm)
- * A somewhat separated interface between those higher layer parts
-   and the Layer1 interface.
+ * BTS-side implementation of TS 08.58 (RSL) and TS 12.21 (OML)
+ * BTS-side implementation of LAPDm (using libosmocore/libosmogsm)
+ * A somewhat separated interface between those higher layer parts and the
+   Layer1 interface.
 
-Right now, only one hardware and Layer1 are supported:  The sysmocom
-sysmoBTS.
-
-There is some experimental and way incomplete code to use a couple of
-OsmocomBB phones and run them in the BTS.  However, the required code
-for the Calypso DSP code have not been written yet.  This would still
-require a lot of work.
-
-Some additional work is being done in using some parts of the OpenBTS
-L1FEC and glue it against omso-bts.  This code is called osmo-trx and
-requires the jolly/trx branch of this repository.
+Several kinds of BTS hardware are supported:
+ * sysmocom sysmoBTS
+ * Octasic octphy
+ * Nutaq litecell 1.5
+ * software-defined radio based osmo-bts-trx (e.g. B210)
