+A placeholder for the real libicpf library. Before building CH
+you should replace the src/libicpf directory with the real libicpf
+library, so the solution would load the real libicpf project and not
+the fake one.
+
+FAQ:
+Q) Why is this subproject empty ?
+A) Because it only the placeholder - you should replace the placeholder
+   with the real libicpf library and then build the entire solution.
+   
+Q) Why not just include real libicpf in the solution instead of this placeholder?
+A) libicpf is a separate project and is maintained independently of CH, so it can't
+   be included as a full library here (it would be tempting to make changes to the
+   libicpf through the CH project instead of making those changes in the separate
+   project). Of course this library is being used in my other projects.
+   
+If you have more questions regarding this matter or would like to suggest some
+other solution - please contact the author of this project at:
+ixen@copyhandler.com.
