 ## Overview
-
-This repository contains files needed to run versions 6 and higher of the sea ice model CICE, which is now maintained by the CICE Consortium.  Versions prior to v6 are found in the [CICE-svn-trunk repository](https://github.com/CICE-Consortium/CICE-svn-trunk).
+This repository contains the files and code needed to run the CICE sea ice numerical model starting with version 6. CICE is maintained by the CICE Consortium. Versions prior to v6 are found in the [CICE-svn-trunk repository](https://github.com/CICE-Consortium/CICE-svn-trunk).
 
 CICE consists of a top level driver and dynamical core plus the Icepack column physics code, which is included in CICE as a git submodule.  Because Icepack is a submodule of CICE, Icepack and CICE development are handled independently with respect to the github repositories even though development and testing may be done together. 
 
-## Obtaining CICE
-
-If you expect to make any changes to the code, we recommend that you first fork both the CICE and Icepack repositories.  Basic instructions for working with CICE and Icepack are found in the [Git Workflow Guidance](https://github.com/CICE-Consortium/About-Us/wiki/Git-Workflow-Guidance), linked from the wikis in the primary code repositories    
-https://github.com/CICE-Consortium/CICE/wiki    
-https://github.com/CICE-Consortium/Icepack/wiki
-
-CICE may be obtained in several different ways:  [not yet tested]    
-1.  clone the full repository    
-See [Git Workflow Guidance](https://github.com/CICE-Consortium/About-Us/wiki/Git-Workflow-Guidance)   
-2.  check out only a particular branch, version or tag    
-In the workflow for step 1 above, substitute    
-    git clone -b branch_name --single-branch --recursive https://github.com/CICE-Consortium/CICE.git local_directory_name  
-or use svn    
-    svn co https://github.com/CICE-Consortium/CICE/branch_name    
-where "branch name" can also be a version name    
-3.  download a tarball for a particular version
