-	<title>Overview</title>
-	<para>
-	  &hyperobject; was designed as a cross-implementation 
-	  compatible <emphasis>Foreign Function Interface</emphasis>.
-	  Necessarily,
-	  only a common subset of functionality can be
-	  provided. Likewise, not every optimization for that a specific
-	  implementation provides can be supported. Wherever possible,
-	  though, implementation-specific optimizations are invoked.
