 Goals and Architecture Overview
 ===============================
 
-.. contents::
-
-Mission statement
------------------
-
-We aim to provide a common translation and support framework for producing
-implementations of dynamic languages, emphasizing a clean separation between
-language specification and implementation aspects.  We call this the
-:doc:`RPython toolchain <translation>`.
-
-By separating concerns in this way, our implementation
-of Python - and other dynamic languages - is able to automatically
-generate a Just-in-Time compiler for any dynamic language.  It also
-allows a mix-and-match approach to implementation decisions, including
-many that have historically been outside of a user's control, such as
-target platform, memory and
-threading models, garbage collection strategies, and optimizations applied,
-including whether or not to have a JIT in the first place.
