+This is an SQL to OO mapper, inspired by the Class::DBI framework, and
+meant to support compability with it, while restructuring the internals
+and making it possible to support some new features like self-joins,
+distinct, group bys and more.
+
+This project is still at an early stage, so the maintainers don't make
+any absolute promise that full backwards-compatibility will be
+supported; however, if we can without compromising the improvements
+we're trying to make, we will, and any non-compatible changes will merit
+a full justification on the mailing list and a CPAN developer release
+for people to test against.
