<h1>AspectJ 5 Readme</h1>
<p>AspectJ 5 introduces several important changes to the language and tools
-in order to support Java 5 and extend the capabilities of AspectJ in
-general. For language changes, see <a href="adk15notebook/index.html">AspectJ 5
-Developer's Notebook</a>. For tools changes, see the
-<a href="devguide/index.html">AspectJ Development Environment Guide</a>,
- especially the section on
-<a href="devguide/ltw.html">Load-time weaving</a>.
-The changes are summarized in the
- <a href="faq.html#q:aspectj5features">FAQ entry on AspectJ 5</a>.
+in order to support Java 5, and to extend the capabilities of AspectJ in
+general. These changes are too extensive to describe in a simple readme file,
+so instead we have created the <a href="adk15notebook/index.html">AspectJ 5
+Developer's Notebook</a> to describe them.</p>
