+# Goal
+
+To build the foundations of a cryptographic extension of the Power ISA, allowing
+anyone interested to build upon this effort and make an Cryptorouter FPGA or ASIC
+for oneself.
+
+# Deliverables
+
+* a set of instructions suitable for crypto applications
+* documentation of said instructions
+* reference HDL implementation of a number of them
+* additional definitions for concepts like a REMAP engine and element width
+overrides which, when implemented, will allow efficient implementation of many
+fundamental crypto algorithms
+* a flexible HDL platform (ls2) for implementing a System-on-Chip on an FPGA or ASIC
+
+# TODO
+
+Links to:
+
+* sub-page about historical reasoning for some of the decisions taken
+* documentation and examples for the crypto instructions
+* bug reports, git commits and other wiki pages 
+
+# Helpful information for Cryptorouter implementations:
+
+Given the work above, the information below is useful for allowing anyone
+interested to work towards building a Cryptorouter FPGA or ASIC for oneself:
