 This is a python package providing an interface to perform F-statistic based
 continuous gravitational wave (CW) searches.
 
-For documentation, please use the [wiki](https://gitlab.aei.uni-hannover.de/GregAshton/PyFstat/wikis/home).
+This repository is now for archival purposes only,
+active development has been moved to:
 
-In the
-[examples](https://gitlab.aei.uni-hannover.de/GregAshton/PyFstat/tree/master/examples),
-we have a number of scripts demonstrating different use cases.

-## Installation
-
-### python installation
-This package works best with `python3.5+`,
-with higher versions to be required soon.
-While many systems come with a system wide python
-installation, it can often be easier to manage a user-specific python
-installation. This way one does not require root access to install or remove
-modules. One method to do this, is to use the `conda` system, either through
-the stripped down [miniconda](http://conda.pydata.org/miniconda.html)
-installation, or the full-featured
-[anaconda](https://www.continuum.io/downloads) (these are essentially the
-same, but the `anaconda` version installs a variety of useful packages such as
-`numpy` and `scipy` by default).
-
-The fastest/easiest method is to follow your OS instructions
-[here](https://conda.io/docs/install/quick.html) which will install Miniconda.
-
-For the rest of this tutorial, we will make use of `pip` to install modules (
-not all packages can be installed with `conda` and for those using alternatives
-to `conda`, `pip` is more universal).
-
-This can be installed with
-```
-conda install pip
-```
-
-### install PyFstat the easy way
-
-Currently, the easiest way to install PyFstat is to point pip to this git repository,
-which will give you the latest master version:
-```
-pip install git+https://gitlab.aei.uni-hannover.de/GregAshton/PyFstat
-```
-or, if you have an ssh key installed in this gitlab instance:
-```
-pip install git+ssh://git@gitlab.aei.uni-hannover.de/GregAshton/PyFstat
-```
-
-(The release on Zenodo is outdated and might not even install depending on your python version.
-New Zenodo and/or PyPi releases are on our to-do list.)
-
-See further down for installing manually from a local git clone.
-
-
-### Dependencies
-
-PyFstat uses the following external python modules,
-which should all be pulled in automatically if you use pip:
-
-* [numpy](http://www.numpy.org/)
-* [matplotlib](http://matplotlib.org/) >= 1.4
-* [scipy](https://www.scipy.org/)
-* [ptemcee](https://github.com/willvousden/ptemcee)
-* [corner](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/corner/)
-* [dill](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/dill)
-* [peakutils](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/PeakUtils)
-* [pathos](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pathos)
-* [tqdm](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/tqdm)
-* [bashplotlib](https://github.com/glamp/bashplotlib)
-* [lalsuite](https://pypi.org/project/lalsuite/)
-
-*Optional*
-* [pycuda](https://pypi.org/project/pycuda/), required for the tCWFstatMapVersion=pycuda
-  option of the TransientGridSearch class.
-  (Note: 'pip install pycuda' requires a working nvcc compiler in your path.)
-
-In case the automatic install doesn't properly pull in all dependencies,
-to install all of these modules manually, you can also run
-```
-pip install -r /PATH/TO/THIS/DIRECTORY/requirements.txt
-```
-For a general introduction to installing modules, see
-[here](https://docs.python.org/3.5/installing/index.html).
-
-If you prefer to make your own LALSuite installation
-[https://git.ligo.org/lscsoft/lalsuite/](from source),
-make sure it is **swig-enabled** and contains at least the `lalpulsar` package.
-A minimal confuration line to use would be e.g.:
-
-```
-./configure --prefix=${HOME}/lalsuite-install --disable-all-lal --enable-lalpulsar --enable-lalapps --enable-swig
-```
-
-
-### PyFstat installation from source
-
-In a terminal, clone the directory:
-
-```
-git clone https://gitlab.aei.uni-hannover.de/GregAshton/PyFstat.git
-```
-
-The module and associated scripts can be installed system wide
-(or to the currently active venv),
-assuming you are in the source directory, via
-```
-python setup.py install
-```
-As a developer, alternatively
-```
-python setup.py develop
-```
-can be useful so you can directly see any changes you make in action.
-Alternatively, add the source directory directly to your python path.
-
-To check that the installation
-was successful, run
-```
-python -c 'import pyfstat'
-```
-if no error message is output, then you have installed `pyfstat`. Note that
-the module will be installed to whichever python executable you call it from.
-
-### Ephemerides installation
-
-PyFstat requires paths to earth and sun ephemerides files
-in order to use the `lalpulsar.ComputeFstat` module and various `lalapps` tools.
-
-If you have done `pip install lalsuite`,
-you need to manually download at least these two files:
-*  [earth00-40-DE405.dat.gz](https://git.ligo.org/lscsoft/lalsuite/raw/master/lalpulsar/lib/earth00-40-DE405.dat.gz)
-*  [sun00-40-DE405.dat.gz](https://git.ligo.org/lscsoft/lalsuite/raw/master/lalpulsar/lib/sun00-40-DE405.dat.gz)
-
-(Other ephemerides versions exist, but these should be sufficient for most applications.)
-You then need to tell PyFstat where to find these files,
-by either setting an environment variable $LALPULSAR_DATADIR
-or by creating a `~/.pyfstat.conf` file as described further below.
-If you are working with a virtual environment,
-you should be able to get a full working ephemerides installation with these commands:
-```
-mkdir $VIRTUAL_ENV/share/lalpulsar
-wget https://git.ligo.org/lscsoft/lalsuite/raw/master/lalpulsar/lib/earth00-40-DE405.dat.gz -P $VIRTUAL_ENV/share/lalpulsar
-wget https://git.ligo.org/lscsoft/lalsuite/raw/master/lalpulsar/lib/sun00-40-DE405.dat.gz -P $VIRTUAL_ENV/share/lalpulsar
-echo 'export LALPULSAR_DATADIR=$VIRTUAL_ENV/share/lalpulsar' >> ${VIRTUAL_ENV}/bin/activate
-deactivate
-source path/to/venv/bin/activate
-```
-
-If instead you have built and installed lalsuite from source,
-and set your path up properly through something like
-`source $MYLALPATH/etc/lalsuite-user-env.sh`,
-then the ephemerides path should be automatically picked up from
-the $LALPULSAR_DATADIR environment variable.
-Alternatively, you can place a file
-`~/.pyfstat.conf` into your home directory which looks like
-
-```
-earth_ephem = '/home/<USER>/lalsuite-install/share/lalpulsar/earth00-19-DE421.dat.gz'
-sun_ephem = '/home/<USER>/lalsuite-install/share/lalpulsar/sun00-19-DE421.dat.gz'
-```
-Paths set in this way will take precedence over the environment variable.
-
-Finally, you can manually specify ephemerides files when initialising
-each PyFstat search (as one of the arguments).
+Please also refer to the github repository for installation and usage instructions
+and to report issues.
