<h1>Welcome To The Fennel Project</h1>

Fennel is a library of C++ components for data storage and processing.
It serves as the "bottom half" of the 
<a href="http://farrago.sf.net">companion Farrago project</a>, but
is also independently usable as a standalone library in applications
requiring high-performance data management.
