 *Benchmarking made easy*
 
-CalipeL is a simple framework to ease development and maintenance
+CalipeL is a simple tool to ease development and maintenance
 of benchmarks and performance regressions. CalipeL has been heavily 
 inspired by [SUnit][1] and [Caliper][2]
 
-The basic ideas behind are:
+The basic ideas that drove the development:
 
 - Benchmarking and (especially) interpreting benchmark results is always
-  a monkey business. Therefore the framework should be as simple as 
-  possible so everybody understands the meaning of numbers it gives.
+  a monkey business. The tool should produce raw numbers, letting the 
+  user to whichever statisctis she need to make up (desired) results. 
 - Benchmark results should be kept and managed at single place so one
   can view and retrieve all past benchmark results pretty much the same
-  way as one can view and retrieve past versions of the software from
-  VCS.

 ## Features
 
 - *simple* - creating a benchmark is as simple as writing a method in a class
 - *flexible* - a special set-up and/or warm-up routines could be specified at benchmark-level as well as set of parameters to allow fine-grained measurements
 under different conditions 
-- *multi-language* - supports multiple languages to allow for language/runtime comparison
+- *batch runner* - contains a batch runner allowing one to run benchmarks from a command line or at CI servers such as Jenkins. 
 - *web* - comes with simple web interface to gather and process benchmark results. [Example...](https://swing.fit.cvut.cz/calipel)
