-					The primary goal of Bigtop is to build a community around the packaging and interoperability testing
-					of Hadoop-related projects.
-				</b> 
-				This includes testing at various levels (packaging, platform, runtime, upgrade, etc...)
-				developed by a community with a focus on the system as a whole, rather than individual projects.
-				Packages have been built on Ubuntu 10.10, CentOS 5/6, Fedora 18, Mageia 1, openSUSE 12.2.
-				They can probably be built on other platforms as well.
+					Bigtop components power the leading Hadoop distros and support many Operating Systems, including Debian/Ubuntu, CentOS, Fedora, SUSE and many others.

+					Bigtop includes tools and a framework for testing at various levels (packaging, platform, runtime, etc.) for both initial deployments as well as upgrade scenarios for the entire data platform, not just the individual components.
