-LaTeX3 Programming Conventions
-==============================
-
-Overview
---------
-
-The files of the `l3kernel` bundle provide a low-level API for TeX programmers
-with special syntax conventions, completely separating it from document level
-syntax. Hence, the commands provided are not intended for use at the document
-level nor for use in describing design layouts in document class files.
-
-This API provides the foundation on which the LaTeX3 kernel and other advanced
-extensions are built. Special care has been taken so that they can be used
-within a LaTeX2e context as regular packages.
-
-While `l3kernel` is still experimental, the bundle is now regarded as broadly
-stable. The syntax conventions and functions provided are now ready for wider
-use. There may still be changes to some functions, but these will be minor when
-compared to the scope of `l3kernel`.
-
-Programmers making use of `l3kernel` are *strongly* encouraged to subscribe to
-the LaTeX-L mailing list (see below): announcements concerning the deprecation
-or modification of functions are made on the list.
-
-Requirements
-------------
-
-The `l3kernel` bundle requires the e-TeX extensions and the functionality
-of the `\pdfstrcmp` primitive. As a result, the bundle will only work
-with the following engines:
-
- - pdfTeX v1.30 or later
- - XeTeX v0.9994 or later
- - LuaTeX v0.40 or later
-
-pdfTeX v1.30 was released in 2005, and so any recent TeX distribution
-will support `l3kernel`. Both XeTeX and LuaTeX have developed more
-actively over the past few years, and for this reason only recent
-releases of these engines are supported.
-
-Discussion
-----------
-
-Discussion concerning the approach, suggestions for improvements,
-changes, additions, _etc._ should be addressed to the list
-[LaTeX-L](http://news.gmane.org/group/gmane.comp.tex.latex.latex3).

-Bugs
-----
-
-The issue tracker for LaTeX3 bugs is currently located at
-
- https://github.com/latex3/svn-mirror/issues
-
-Please report specific issues with LaTeX3 code there. More general
-discussion should be directed to the LaTeX-L lists.
