 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE h5r R PACKAGE
 
 Currently, this package works and has been tested with >= hdf5-1.8.4
-(we build with 1.8.8) on Mac OSX, Linux, and Windows. The package will
-most likely work on most POSIX systems where R (>= 2.10) works. 
+on Mac OSX, Linux, and Windows. 
 
-The hdf group (http://www.hdfgroup.org) provides binaries for common
-platforms. Unfortunately, the binaries they provide for Windows
-platforms are not compatible with R because they are based on
-Microsoft's compiler. Therefore, we provide MinGw-based static
-libraries to compile against. It is non-trivial to get a functioning
-MinGW-based Windows binary. These binaries are available in the source
-download at R-forge under the 'windows' directory.
