@section Overview
SLV2 is a host library to simplify the discovery, loading, and use of LV2
-plugins.
+plugins (http://lv2plug.in).
+SLV2 is written in standard C99, and depends only on the Redland RDF library
+(http://librdf.org). It should be portable to any system, and is tested on various
+GNU/Linux distributions (often), and Mac OSX (occasionally).
+
+The public interface of SLV2 is documented in several sections. The RDF and shared
+library functionality is strictly divided so it is simple to understand when each is
+being used (e.g. it is possible to discover/investigate plugins and related data
+without loading any shared libraries, avoiding the associated risks).
