+In order to use Z3 MSF plugin, follow the following steps:
+1. Compile latest Z3 .NET API (from any branch consisting of opt features) and copy 'libz3.dll' and 'Microsoft.Z3.dll' to the folder of 'Z3MSFPlugin.sln'.
+2. Retrieve 'Microsoft.Solver.Foundation.dll' from http://archive.msdn.microsoft.com/solverfoundation/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=1799,
+   preferably using DLL only version. Copy 'Microsoft.Solver.Foundation.dll' to the folder of 'Z3MSFPlugin.sln'
+3. Build 'Z3MSFPlugin.sln'
+
+The solution consists of a plugin project, a test project with a few simple test cases and a command line projects for external OML, MPS and SMPS models.
+To retrieve SMT2 models which are native to Z3, set the logging file in corresponding directives or solver params e.g.
+
+   var p = new Z3MILPParams();
+   p.SMT2LogFile = "model.smt2";
+
+For more details, check out the commands in 'Validator\Program.cs'.
+
+Enjoy!
