+
+[Cap’n Proto](https://capnproto.org/) is an insanely fast data interchange format similar to [Protocol Buffers](https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf), but much faster.
+
+It also includes a sophisticated RPC system based on [Object Capabilities](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-capability_model), ideal for secure, low-latency applications.
+
+This package provides:
+- Go code-generation for Cap'n Proto
+- Runtime support for the Go language
+- Level 1 support for the [Cap'n Proto RPC](https://capnproto.org/rpc.html) protocol
+
+Support for Level 3 RPC is [planned](https://github.com/capnproto/go-capnproto2/issues/160).
+
+## Getting Started
+
+Read the ["Getting Started" guide](docs/Getting-Started.md#remote-calls-using-interfaces)
+for a high-level introduction to the package API and workflow.
+
+## Help and Support
+
+You can find us on Matrix:   [Go Cap'n Proto](https://matrix.to/#/!pLcnVUHHRZrUPscloW:matrix.org?via=matrix.org)
+
+## API Reference
+
+Available on [pkg.go.dev][godoc]
+
+## API Compatibility
+
+Until the official Cap'n Proto spec is finalized, this repository should be considered <u>beta software</u>.
+
+We use [semantic versioning](https://semver.org) to track compatibility and signal breaking changes.  In the spirit of the [Go 1 compatibility guarantee][gocompat], we will make every effort to avoid making breaking API changes within major version numbers, but nevertheless reserve the right to introduce breaking changes for reasons related to:
+
+- Security.
+- Changes in the Cap'n Proto specification.
+- Bugs.
+
+An exception to this rule is currently in place for the `pogs` package, which is relatively new and may change over time.  However, its functionality has been well-tested, and breaking changes are relatively unlikely.
+
+Note also we may merge breaking changes to the `main` branch without notice.  Users are encouraged to pin their dependencies to a major version, e.g. using the semver-aware features of `go get`.
