+== Introduction and Overview
+
+Welcome to the Altus Metrum community!  Our circuits and software reflect
+our passion for both hobby rocketry and Free Software.  We hope their
+capabilities and performance will delight you in every way, but by
+releasing all of our hardware and software designs under open licenses,
+we also hope to empower you to take as active a role in our collective
+future as you wish!
+
+Thank you for your interest in TeleLaunch, a wireless control system for
+launching hobby rockets.  Each TeleLaunch system contains at least two units,
+a launch control box (TeleLCO) and one or more launch initiation boxes 
+(TeleFire).  In this manual, we hope to provide all the information required
+to configure and successfully operate a TeleLaunch system.
+
+Unlike other Altus Metrum products, that are usually provided as circuit
+boards that the user must arrange to mount and wire up, all products in the
+TeleLaunch system are sold as fully packaged, almost-ready-to-use units.  This
+means that with only minimal one-time configuration of each unit, a TeleLaunch
+system can be made ready for use very quickly.
+
+Because documentation is just as prone as software to contain "bugs", and
+can always be improved...  If you have questions that aren't answered in this 
+manual, or just need a little help figuring things out, we strongly suggest 
+joining the Altus Metrum user email list, which you can do by visiting 
+https://lists.gag.com/mailman/listinfo/altusmetrum.
