-				   <p>LLDB is in early development and supports basic debugging scenarios on
-				      Mac OS X. The public API has not been finalized, and different parts are
-				      at different levels of maturity.  We welcome any help fleshing out missing
-				      pieces and improving the code.</p>
+				   <p>LLDB has matured a lot in the last year and can be used for
+				      C, C++ and Objective C development for x86_64, i386 and ARM debugging.
+				      The entire public API is exposed though a framework on Mac OS X which
+				      is used by Xcode, the lldb command line tool, and can also be used by
+				      python. The entire public API is exposed through script bridging which
+				      allows LLDB to use an embedded python script interpreter, as well as 
+				      having a python module named "lldb" which can be used from python
+				      on the command line. This allows debug sessions to be scripted. It also
+				      allows powerful debugging actions to be created and attached to a variety
+				      of debugging workflows.</p>
