-<section name="Scope of the Package">
-
-<p>The proposal defines a miniature resources framework consisting of two
-abstract classes:</p>
-<ul>
-<li><strong>MessageResources</strong> - Base class for a collection of
-    message strings, keyed by a combination of a <code>java.util.Locale</code>
-    and a message key.</li>
-<li><strong>MessageResourcesFactory</strong> - Factory class to configure and
-    instantiate an appropriate <code>MessageResources</code> instance.</li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>An initial (and default) implementation accesses the required message
-strings from Properties files accessed via <code>Class.getResource()</code>.
-These files are named with a base name, plus extensions identifying the
-Locale of the contained message strings, in a manner identical to the
-<code>java.util.PropertyResourceBundle</code> class of the standard APIs.</p>
-</section>
 
-<section name="Initial Source of the Package">
+  <subsection name="Resources API">
 
-<p>The four original Java classes (<code>MessageResources</code>,
-<code>MessageResourcesFactory</code>, <code>PropertyMessageResources</code>,
-and <code>PropertyMessageResourcesFactory</code>) are an integral
-part of the <a href="http://struts.apache.org/";>Struts Framework</a>.
-However, they have no dependencies on other aspects of Struts.
-Once accepted and released as a Jakarta Commons component, Struts will
-be modified to use the Commons version of these classes, and its internal
-versions will be deprecated.</p>
+    <p>The core of the resources framework are two interfaces:</p>
+    <ul>
+        <li><a 
href="apidocs/org/apache/commons/resources/Resources.html">Resources</a> 
+            Representation of a set of internationalized resources, which are 
arbitrary
+            objects identified by a unique String key and can be accessed for 
different
+            <code>java.util.Locale</code> and 
<code>java.util.TimeZone</code>.</li>
+        <li><a 
href="apidocs/org/apache/commons/resources/ResourcesFactory.html">ResourcesFactory</a>
 
+            Factory class to configure and instantiate an appropriate
+            <code>Resources</code> instance.</li>
+    </ul>
 
-<p>The proposed package name for the new component is
-<code>org.apache.commons.resources</code>.</p>
+    <p>Basic imlementations of the above are provided for resources contained
+       in property files, XML and databases(via JDBC). Implementations are
+       also provided for use in a Web App environment.
+    </p>
+   
+    <p>The resources framework also includes interfaces for encapsualting 
messages
+       and message lists:</p>
+    <ul>
+        <li><a 
href="apidocs/org/apache/commons/resources/Message.html">Message</a> 
+            An encapsulation of an individual messag, consisting of a message 
key,
+            and replacement values.</li>
+        <li><a 
href="apidocs/org/apache/commons/resources/MessageList.html">MessageList</a> 
+            A class that encapsulates a set of messages.</li>
+    </ul>
