-The biggest news in this release is the initial revision of the
-SvxReflector application. The SvxReflector application is meant to be used

+The SvxLink Server is a general purpose voice services system,
+which when connected to a transceiver, can act as both an advanced repeater
+system and can also operate on a simplex channel. One could call it a radio
+operating system since it sits between the hardware (transceiver) and the
+applications (modules) and handle basic system services as well as input and output.

+SvxLink is very extensible and modular. Voice services are implemented as modules
+which are isolated from each other. Modules can be implemented in either C++ or TCL.
