              -----------------------------
              Version 0.3 of the ecv class
               C.P. Neumann, B. Haberstumpf
              -----------------------------

This LaTeX provides a simple environment for laying out a
fancy curriculum vitae with LaTeX. The class is intended
to be self-contained so it should not be necessary to fiddle
around with thousand other packages to get a nicely 
formatted CV.

As this class is created mainly for ourselves it does not
contain evil low-level TeX magic but instead uses many other
fancy LaTeX packages that we hope you have already installed.

This work may be distributed and/or modified under the
conditions of the LaTeX Project Public License, either version 1.3
of this license or (at your option) any later version.
The latest version of this license is in
  http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt
and version 1.3 or later is part of all distributions of LaTeX
version 2005/12/01 or later.
