 # gonotes
 
-A toyish project for a shared notebook of sorts implemented in go.  It's mostly
-a learning opportunity for using go, and partially an intent to end up with a
-shared notebook!
-
-It's not shared in the sense of simultaneous editing, don't do that!
-
-## TODO
-
-* handle static urls in the django url mapping style
-* Style up the templates better
+A shared notebook of sorts implemented in go. Shared here means that the
+content is visible to more than one user.  It does not currently support
+simultaneous editing and there are no plans to do that.  Furthe, it
+*currently* does not support the concept of a lock or checkout when a note
+is edited.  It's the responsibility of the editing parties to prevent races
+and conflicts.
