+## How to Build and Run a Voltha Go language Adapter
+
+This directory is a repo for all voltha adapters written in Go language.  At this time, the simulated_olt and 
+simulated_onu adapters are the only adapters using the Go language.  These adapters provide basic capabilities
+which will be used for high availability and capacity testing.
+
+### Building and running the Simulated OLT and ONU Adapters
+
+Please refer to the ```BUILD.md``` file under the voltha-go repo

+//Package log provides a structured Logger interface implemented using zap logger. It provides the following capabilities:
+//1. Package level logging - a go package can register itself (AddPackage) and have a logger created for that package.
+//2. Dynamic log level change - for all registered packages (SetAllLogLevel)
+//3. Dynamic log level change - for a given package (SetPackageLogLevel)
+//4. Provides a default logger for unregistered packages
+//5. Allow key-value pairs to be added to a logger(UpdateLogger) or all loggers (UpdateAllLoggers) at run time
+//6. Add to the log output the location where the log was invoked (filename.functionname.linenumber)
+//
+// Using package-level logging (recommended approach).  In the examples below, log refers to this log package.
+// 1.  In the appropriate package add the following in the init section of the package.  The log level can be changed
+// and any number of default fields can be added as well. The log level specifies the lowest log level that will be
+// in the output while the fields will be automatically added to all log printouts.
+//
+//	log.AddPackage(mylog.JSON, log.WarnLevel, log.Fields{"anyFieldName": "any value"})
+//
+//2. In the calling package, just invoke any of the publicly available functions of the logger.  Here is an  example
+// to write an Info log with additional fields:
+//
+//log.Infow("An example", mylog.Fields{"myStringOutput": "output", "myIntOutput": 2})
+//
+//3. To dynamically change the log level, you can use 1)SetLogLevel from inside your package or 2) SetPackageLogLevel
+// from anywhere or 3)  SetAllLogLevel from anywhere.
