+Alpha Software Warning
+
+  Some user accessible points in this software package should be
+  considered "alpha". This means that the developer team is not
+  investing _any_ effort to provide backward compatibility between alpha
+  releases for these parts. This software will continue to be released
+  as "alpha" until its code, schemas, and APIs are considered stable.
+
+  Until then, there will be no warranty that newer versions will
+  maintain backward compatibility for such parts, even in the most
+  simple cases. However, once "beta" status is reached, backward
+  incompatible changes will be made only when absolutely necessary to
+  reach "final" status.
+
+  The Cocoon development team understands the importance of reliable
+  software as well protecting user investments through the creation of a
+  solid development platform that doesn't change. On the other hand,
+  Cocoon 3 should give its developers the freedom to experiment and to
+  react quickly on feedback. Thus, reliability cannot be guaranteed
+  before the software achieves its "final" status.
+
+  Until then, no effort will be provided to guarantee backward
+  compatibility for any parts considered alpha.
+
+  You have been warned.
