+       Dotty is a platform to try out new language concepts and compiler technologies for Scala.
+       The focus is mainly on simplification. We remove extraneous syntax (e.g. no XML literals),
+       and try to boil down Scala’s types into a smaller set of more fundamental constructs.
+       The theory behind these constructs is researched in DOT, a calculus for dependent object types.
