+<p>With 3 years of development under our belt since Tridge first proposed a
+new Virtual File System (VFS) layer for Samba3 (a project which
+eventually lead to our Active Directory efforts), it was felt that we
+should create something we could 'show off' to our users.  This is third
+Technology Preview (TP), aimed at allowing users, managers and
+developers to see how we have progressed, and to invite feedback and
+support.</p>
+
+<p>In particular, this release has a strong focus on portability and
+infrastructure.  The aim is to give Samba4 a solid foundation on which
+we can again move to create more visible features.  That said, two
+particular technologies included in this release are the LDAP backend,
+and the experimental SMB2 server.</p>
