 KnowledgeTree Document Management System
 ----------------------------------------
 
-Welcome to KnowledgeTree.  While it represents a significant improvement
-to the visible and background components of KnowledgeTree, it is not yet
-ready for production use.
-
-It is recommended that you ensure you have backups of anything you put
-into the beta repository.
-
 KnowledgeTree 3 is intended to be easier to use for users and
 administrators (including a new user interface) and also easy for
 developers to customise it and make plugins for it.
