# Introduction {#sec:introduction}
-In the following work, we define the architecture, internal interfaces and the
-implementation of `imag` (called "the program" in the following chapters).
-
-The program is intended to be an _Personal Information Management Suite_
-(PIM-Suite), featuring all components such a suite should have, including
-contact management, calendar, todo-list functionality, etc.
-The program is intended to be used by so-called "power-users", therefor it is a
-commandline application which offers a polished interface to the user and is not
-bound to an editor, e-mail reader, RSS reader, etc. The program uses standards
-as icalendar, vcard, RSS/Atom, Markdown, etc.
-
-The development of this program may adapt other programs. For example, the
-todo-module may be implemented with the "taskwarrior" application, if possible,
-so we try to re-use functionality which is implemented elsewhere and where other
-people put a lot of effort into. We clearly do not want to duplicate
-functionality, work and effort or implementations.
-
-"imag" is a single-user, one-shot program. It is not intended to be used by
-multiple users with the same storage at the same time.
-This may change in the future.
+This document aims to be the user documentation for imag, the personal
+information management suite for the commandline.
+
+If you have any objections, suggestions for improvements, bugs, etc, please file
+them in the github repository you got this documentation from.
## The Problem {#sec:intro:problem}
@@ -57,3 +42,6 @@ to implement and adapt "imag" functionality. An external program may use a
library of the "imag" distribution to store content in the store of "imag" and
make it visible to "imag" this way.
+This is a technical detail a user does not necessarily need to know, but as imag
+is intended for power-users anyways, we could say it fits here.
