+This is libminitru, a library to query monitor information.  It's mostly
+extracted from the X server sources, but is intended to be useful for
+color management and general desktop libraries, as well as other display
+servers that insist on parsing this stuff in userspace.
+
+What's with the name?  Well, it's for parsing display information, but
+there's more formats of that than just EDID.  So, display information.
+And they all lie, one way or the other, so, disinformation.  Ministry of
+Truth.  minitru.
