  Alacritty is focused on simplicity and performance. The performance goal means
  it should be faster than any other terminal emulator available. The simplicity
  -goal means that it doesn't have many features like tabs or scroll back as in
  -other terminals. Instead, it is expected that users of Alacritty make use of a
  -terminal multiplexer such as [`tmux`](https://github.com/tmux/tmux).
  +goal means that it doesn't have features such as tabs or splits (which can be
  +better provided by a window manager or [terminal multiplexer][tmux]) nor
  +niceties like a GUI config editor.
  -This initial release should be considered to be **pre-alpha** software--it will
  -have issues. Once Alacritty reaches an alpha level of readiness, precompiled
  -binaries will be provided for supported operating systems.
  +The software is considered to be at an **alpha** level of readiness--there are
  +missing features and bugs to be fixed, but it is already used by many as a daily
  +driver.
  +
  +Precompiled binaries will eventually be made available on supported platforms.
  +This is minimally blocked on a stable config format. For now, Alacritty must be
  +built from source.
