+<h2>Goal</h2>
+
+<p>The project wants to provide a portable TCP/IP (and later on maybe
+UDP) socket interface for as many Common Lisp implementations as
+possible, while keeping the abstraction and portability layer as thin
+as possible. </p>
+
 <h2>Community</h2>
 
- <p>This project has recently started. See <a
-href="http://common-lisp.net/websvn/filedetails.php?repname=usocket&path=%2Fusocket%2Ftrunk%2Fdoc%2Fdesign.txt&rev=0&sc=0">the design
-document</a> for more information.</p>
+ <p>This project has recently started.  There isn't much of a community
+    yet, except me (Erik Huelsmann).  So, you're invited to join the mailing
+    list, announce yourself and maybe even join the effort.
+ </p>
 
  <p>Development discussion takes place on
    <a href="mailto:usocket-devel at common-lisp.net">usocket-devel at common-lisp.net</a>.
-  Please feel free to join and chip in! (This currently being a single man project, please announce yourself.)

   <h2>Development roadmap</h2>
 
-<p>Development will at least follow the steps outlined below.
- Yet to be determined is whether the currently mentioned steps will
- be enough to release version 1.0.  Possibly, UDP sockets remain to be
- addressed before doing 1.0; that will depend on your reactions :-)
