-The goal of this project is to build an efficient Java virtual machine
-in C for the GNU/Linux operating system. SableVM implements the Java
-virtual machine specification, second edition, and like the Intel VM
-includes a special version of the GNU Classpath libraries.
+SableVM is a robust, extremely portable, efficient, and
+specifications-compliant Java Virtual Machine that aims to be easy to
+maintain and to extend. It features a state-of-the-art, efficient
+interpreter engine. Its source code is very accessible and easy to
+understand, and has many robustness features that have been the object
+of careful design.
