+Introduction
+------------
+
+This extension provides a significant speedup of your pages. The
+speedup depends on the amount of css and javascript files that you
+are using on your site. The performance advantage is gained by
+concatenating, minimizing and compressing of all css and javascript
+files. Furthermore the extension supports different media types and
+relations (rel attribute) for css scripts and different output formats
+of the result files. Currently you can write them back into the
+document as links to external files, as embedded content or deferred scripts (js only).
+
+The minification process and @import rule replacement logic is based
+upon the extension „Minify“ that you can find at `Google Code <http://code.google.com/p/minify/>`_.
+Furthermore `JSMinPlus <http://crisp.tweakblogs.net/blog/1665/a-new-javascript-minifier-jsmin+.html>`_
+and `JShrink <https://github.com/tedivm/JShrink>`_ are used as better alternatives for JSMin in the javascript
+minification process. You can still switch to JSMin if you experience trouble.
