-An alpha release is planned by the end of August 2004. If
-you're desparate to use it / help, contact me (blee (at)
-thisdomain) for sources. Since Elephant is alpha, claims
-about correctness, performance and safety should be taken
-with a grain of salt. Eventually it will be portable but is
-developed on CMUCL, and tested on Allegro; we're also
-targeting OpenMCL, SBCL and Lispworks.
+See NOTES.
 
-We are only part-time hackers and would appreciate any
-support we can get, in feedback, testing, and development
-help.
-
-Design:
-
-* Metaclasses declare CLOS persistence. Store controller
-object provides interface to underlying DB.
-
-* One big BTree. Automatically serialize / deserialize
-values. Persistent objects stored by OID.
-
-* Access to BTrees via hash-table-like Lisp objects.
-
-* Liveness determined by reachability from a root Btree.
-
-* Delegate as much as possible to Berkeley DB.
