+
+## Overview
+
+[`tracing`] is a framework for instrumenting Rust programs to collect
+structured, event-based diagnostic information. `tracing-test` provides
+some reusable tools to aid in testing, but that are only intended for
+internal use. For mocks and expectations, see [`tracing-mock`].
+
+*Compiler support: [requires `rustc` 1.56+][msrv]*
+
+[msrv]: #supported-rust-versions
+
+## Supported Rust Versions
+
+Tracing is built against the latest stable release. The minimum supported
+version is 1.56. The current Tracing version is not guaranteed to build on Rust
+versions earlier than the minimum supported version.
+
+Tracing follows the same compiler support policies as the rest of the Tokio
+project. The current stable Rust compiler and the three most recent minor
+versions before it will always be supported. For example, if the current stable
+compiler version is 1.45, the minimum supported version will not be increased
+past 1.42, three minor versions prior. Increasing the minimum supported compiler
+version is not considered a semver breaking change as long as doing so complies
+with this policy.
+
+## License
+
+This project is licensed under the [MIT license][mit-url].
+
+### Contribution
+
+Unless you explicitly state otherwise, any contribution intentionally submitted
+for inclusion in Tracing by you, shall be licensed as MIT, without any additional
+terms or conditions.
