+============================
+
+Generic CAS maven war overlay to exercise the latest versions of CAS 4.x line
+
+This overlay could be freely used as a starting template for local CAS maven war overlays.
+
+# Versions
+```xml
+<cas.version>4.0.0</cas.version>
+```
+
+# Recommended Requirements
+* JDK 1.7+
+* Apache Maven 3+
+* Servlet container supporting Servlet 3+ spec (e.g. Apache Tomcat 7+)
+
+# Configuration
+The `etc` directory contains the sample configuration files that would need to be copied to an external file system location (`/etc/cas` by default)
+and configured to satisfy local CAS installation needs. Current files are:

+
+# Deployment

+* Execute `mvn clean package`
+* Deploy resultant `target/cas.war` to a Servlet container of choice
