readme: initial temporary readme update

Update the repository README file to accurately reflect
the intent and nature of this repository. The original
io.js README is preserved as iojs_README.md.

This is temporary just while the convergence process
gets underway. Once the repository moves over to
the official organization, this can be reverted back to
an actual project README that accurately reflects the
combined projects.

+This repository is the working repository for the proposed convergence of the
+http://github.com/iojs/io.js and http://github.com/joyent/node projects under
+the Node.js Foundation.
 
-This repository began as a GitHub fork of
-[joyent/node](https://github.com/joyent/node).
+Contributions, releases, and contributorship are under the proposed
+Governance and Developer Policy for the soon-to-be-launched Node.js
+Foundation:
 
-io.js contributions, releases, and contributorship are under an
-[open governance model](./GOVERNANCE.md).
-We intend to land, with increasing regularity, releases which are
-compatible with the npm ecosystem that has been built to date for
-Node.js.

+* http://github.com/jasnell/dev-policy
 
-## Is it io.js or IO.js or iojs or IOjs or iOjS?
+This project is operating with the oversight of the joint Node.js and io.js
+core technical teams.
 
-The official name is **io.js**, which should never be capitalized,
-especially not at the start of a sentence, unless it is being
-displayed in a location that is customarily all-caps (such as
-the title of man pages).
-
-## Download
-
-Binaries, installers, and source tarballs are available at
-<https://iojs.org>.
-
-**Releases** are available at <https://iojs.org/dist/>, listed under
-their version string. The <https://iojs.org/dist/latest/> symlink
-will point to the latest release directory.
-
-**Nightly** builds are available at
-<https://iojs.org/download/nightly/>, listed under their version
-string which includes their date (in UTC time) and the commit SHA at
-the HEAD of the release.
-
-**API documentation** is available in each release and nightly
-directory under _docs_. <https://iojs.org/api/> points to the latest version.
-
-### Verifying Binaries
-
-Release and nightly download directories all contain a *SHASUM256.txt*
-file that lists the SHA checksums for each file available for
-download. To check that a downloaded file matches the checksum, run
-it through `sha256sum` with a command such as:
-
-```
-$ grep iojs-vx.y.z.tar.gz SHASUMS256.txt | sha256sum -c -
-```
-
-_(Where "iojs-vx.y.z.tar.gz" is the name of the file you have
-downloaded)_
-
-Additionally, releases (not nightlies) have GPG signed copies of
-SHASUM256.txt files available as SHASUM256.txt.asc. You can use `gpg`
-to verify that the file has not been tampered with.
-
-To verify a SHASUM256.txt.asc, you will first need to import all of
-the GPG keys of individuals authorized to create releases. They are
-listed at the bottom of this README. Use a command such as this to
-import the keys:
-
-```
-$ gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net \
-  --recv-keys DD8F2338BAE7501E3DD5AC78C273792F7D83545D
-```
-
-_(Include each of the key fingerprints at the end of this command.)_
-
-You can then use `gpg --verify SHASUMS256.txt.asc` to verify that the
-file has been signed by an authorized member of the io.js team.
-
-Once verified, use the SHASUMS256.txt.asc file to get the checksum for
-the binary verification command above.
-
-## Build
-
-### Unix / Macintosh
-
-Prerequisites:
-
-* `gcc` and `g++` 4.8 or newer, or
-* `clang` and `clang++` 3.4 or newer
-* Python 2.6 or 2.7
-* GNU Make 3.81 or newer
-* libexecinfo (FreeBSD and OpenBSD only)
-
-```text
-$ ./configure
-$ make
-$ [sudo] make install
-```
-
-If your Python binary is in a non-standard location or has a
-non-standard name, run the following instead:
-
-```text
-$ export PYTHON=/path/to/python
-$ $PYTHON ./configure
-$ make
-$ [sudo] make install
-```
-
-To run the tests:
-
-```text
-$ make test
-```
-
-To build the documentation:
-
-```text
-$ make doc
-```
-
-To read the documentation:
-
-```text
-$ man doc/iojs.1
-```
-
-### Windows
-
-Prerequisites:
-
-* [Python 2.6 or 2.7](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
-* Visual Studio 2013 for Windows Desktop, or
-* Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows Desktop
-* Basic Unix tools required for some tests,
-  [Git for Windows](http://git-scm.com/download/win) includes Git Bash
-  and tools which can be included in the global `PATH`.
-
-```text
-> vcbuild nosign
-```
-
-To run the tests:
-
-```text
-> vcbuild test
-```
-
-### Android / Android based devices, aka. Firefox OS
-
-Be sure you have downloaded and extracted [Android NDK]
-(https://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html)
-before in a folder. Then run:
-
-```
-$ ./android-configure /path/to/your/android-ndk
-$ make
-```
-
-### `Intl` (ECMA-402) support:
-
-[Intl](https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Intl) support is not
-enabled by default.
-
-#### "small" (English only) support
-
-This option will build with "small" (English only) support, but
-the full `Intl` (ECMA-402) APIs.  With `--download=all` it will
-download the ICU library as needed.
-
-Unix / Macintosh:
-
-```text
-$ ./configure --with-intl=small-icu --download=all
-```
-
-Windows:
-
-```text
-> vcbuild small-icu download-all
-```
-
-The `small-icu` mode builds with English-only data. You can add full
-data at runtime.
-
-*Note:* more docs are on
-[the joyent/node wiki](https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Intl).
-
-#### Build with full ICU support (all locales supported by ICU):
-
-With the `--download=all`, this may download ICU if you don't have an
-ICU in `deps/icu`.
-
-Unix / Macintosh:
-
-```text
-$ ./configure --with-intl=full-icu --download=all
-```
-
-Windows:
-
-```text
-> vcbuild full-icu download-all
-```
-
-#### Build with no Intl support `:-(`
-
-The `Intl` object will not be available. This is the default at
-present, so this option is not normally needed.
-
-Unix / Macintosh:
-
-```text
-$ ./configure --with-intl=none
-```
-
-Windows:
-
-```text
-> vcbuild intl-none
-```
-
-#### Use existing installed ICU (Unix / Macintosh only):
-
-```text
-$ pkg-config --modversion icu-i18n && ./configure --with-intl=system-icu
-```
-
-#### Build with a specific ICU:
-
-You can find other ICU releases at
-[the ICU homepage](http://icu-project.org/download).
-Download the file named something like `icu4c-**##.#**-src.tgz` (or
-`.zip`).
-
-Unix / Macintosh
-
-```text
-# from an already-unpacked ICU:
-$ ./configure --with-intl=[small-icu,full-icu] --with-icu-source=/path/to/icu
-
-# from a local ICU tarball
-$ ./configure --with-intl=[small-icu,full-icu] --with-icu-source=/path/to/icu.tgz
-
-# from a tarball URL
-$ ./configure --with-intl=full-icu --with-icu-source=http://url/to/icu.tgz
-```
-
-Windows
-
-First unpack latest ICU to `deps/icu`
-[icu4c-**##.#**-src.tgz](http://icu-project.org/download) (or `.zip`)
-as `deps/icu` (You'll have: `deps/icu/source/...`)
-
-```text
-> vcbuild full-icu
-```
