+As well as the [specification](SPEC.md), this repository contains the Go source code of a [library for integrating CNI into applications](libcni) and an [example command-line tool](cnitool) for executing CNI plugins.  A [separate repository contains reference plugins](https://github.com/containernetworking/plugins) and a template for making new plugins.
 
 The template code makes it straight-forward to create a CNI plugin for an existing container networking project.
 CNI also makes a good framework for creating a new container networking project from scratch.

 ### Requirements
 
-CNI requires Go 1.5+ to build.

-Go 1.5 users will need to set GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT=1 to get vendored
-dependencies. This flag is set by default in 1.6.
+The CNI spec is language agnostic.  To use the Go language libraries in this repository, you'll need a recent version of Go.  Our [automated tests](https://travis-ci.org/containernetworking/cni/builds) cover Go versions 1.7 and 1.8.
 
 ### Reference Plugins
 
 The CNI project maintains a set of [reference plugins](https://github.com/containernetworking/plugins) that implement the CNI specification.
-NOTE: the reference plugins used to live in [https://github.com/containernetworking/cni](https://github.com/containernetworking/cni) but have been split out to their [current location](https://github.com/containernetworking/plugins) as of May 2017.
