+dmab - Discord-Matrix Announcement Bridge
+=========================================
+A Discord and Matrix bot bridge that reads messages from a Discord channel
+and sends them to a Matrix channel.
+
+This is meant for announcement type channels but can be adapted to be a proper
+full bridge, but is currently out of scope for this program.
+
+Rationale
+---------
+The current (as of January 14, 2024) matrix-appservice-discord bridge does not
+support bridging Discord channels of type announcement.
