\section{Introduction}\label{sec:int}
-The package \sty{biblatex-trad} is a contribution to the great package \sty{biblatex}.
+The package \sty{biblatex-trad} is a contribution to the great package \sty{biblatex}.
It provides the implementation of the traditional bibliography styles (\sty{plain},
\sty{unsrt}, \sty{alpha} and \sty{abbrv}) as a style for \sty{biblatex}.
\subsection{Motivation}\label{subsec:int:mot}
-The package is motivated by a question at \tex-\latex Stack Exchange \glqq \href{http://tex.stackexchange.com/}{How to emulate the traditional BibTeX styles (plain, abbrv, unsrt, alpha) as closely as possible with biblatex?}
+The package is motivated by a question at \tex{} -- \latex Stack Exchange
+\enquote{\href{http://tex.stackexchange.com/a/69706/}{How to emulate the traditional BibTeX styles
+(\sty{plain}, \sty{abbrv}, \sty{unsrt}, \sty{alpha}) as closely as possible with \sty{biblatex}?}}
\subsection{Requirements}
+The usage of the styles requires the \sty{biblatex} package.
+It is tested with the current version of \sty{biblatex} (at the time of writing that is 3.4).
+Care has been taken to retain backwards compatibility with older versions,
+but please do not expect the styles to work flawlessly with ancient versions of \sty{biblatex}.
+Note also that the style may fail silently with older versions, it need not necessarily emit noisy
+warnings or error messages, the output might just be wrong.
-The usage of the styles requires \sty{biblatex} 2.0 or newer.
+Note that in recent versions of \sty{biblatex} the \bibtex backend has been degraded to
+the status of \enquote{fallback backend}.
+Many features of this style will only work properly if you use the default Biber backend.
