-This API is strongly inspired by Google Chromium's code, but has been
-much simplified:
+Introduction
+============
+
+The code in this folder is a standalone object-oriented wrapper around
+SQLite3. It is derived from the code of Chromium:
 
 http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/trunk/src/sql/
 http://maxradi.us/documents/sqlite/
 
 
-NOTES :
-* A statement is always valid (is_valid() always return true)
+Main differences with Chromium
+==============================
+
+* The reference counting mechanism has been reimplemented to make it 
+  simpler.
+* The PalantirException class is used for the exception mechanisms.
+* A statement is always valid (is_valid() always return true).
+* The classes and the methods have been renamed to meet Palantir's
+  coding conventions.
+
+
+Licensing
+=========
+
+The code in this folder is licensed under the 3-clause BSD license, in
+order to respect the original license of the code.
+
+It is pretty straightforward to extract the code from this folder and
+to include it in another project.
