 ## What this is
-DZGUI allows you to connect to both official and modded/community DayZ servers on Linux and provides a graphical interface for doing so.
+DZGUI is a turnkey browser and mod manager for DayZ on Linux. It allows you to connect to both official and modded/community DayZ servers on Linux via a graphical user interface (GUI).
 
 This overcomes certain limitations in the Linux client and helps prepare the game to launch by providing features like:
 
-- Search for and display server metadata in a table (server name, player count, ping, queue size, current gametime, distance, IP)
+- Search for and display global and LAN servers via an interactive table
+- Supports official, third-party, and modded DayZ servers
+- Automatically find and prepare mods being requested by servers
 - Add/delete/manage favorite servers by IP or ID
 - Quick-connect to favorite/recent servers
-- Find and prepare mods being requested by servers (choose from manual or automatic installation)
-- Bulk delete/update local mods
-- Concatenate launch options to pass to Steam
-- Connect to mod-enabled LAN servers
+- Manage local mods and symlinks
+- Prepare launch options to pass to Steam
 
 ## Setup and usage

+This tool uses [python-a2s](https://github.com/Yepoleb/python-a2s) and [dayzquery](https://github.com/Yepoleb/dayzquery) as submodules; licenses for these submodules can be found in the LICENSES file
+of the project root.
+
+Both the geolocation records and submodules listed above are not shipped with the source code, but are retrieved and assembled at runtime.
+
+Finally, executable versions of DZGUI shipped as release binaries are thin wrappers around the Python interpreter, and also retrieve and assemble the above dependencies at runtime on the end-user's
+machine, rather than using pre-compiled source code. Users wishing to review these dependencies can inspect the 'pyproject.toml' manifest in the project root.

+## Disclaimer
+
+DZGUI is beta-quality software and is provided as-is.
