-1. The Apache Webserver
-2. .htaccess support allowing overrides for DirectoryIndex
-3. PHP Version 4 or greater (PHP 4.3.1 or greater recommended)
+1. The Apache Webserver (Linux suggested; s9y runs on Windows with some
+   directory-related drawbacks and system locale issues. You'll need to
+   take care that when installing on windows you always use '/' slashes
+   for directories and no '\' slashes anywhere. Also make sure your apache
+   DocumentRoot is set to a directory with '/'.)
+2. .htaccess support allowing overrides for DirectoryIndex (if rewriting is
+   wanted)
+3. PHP Version 4 or greater (PHP 4.3.1 or greater recommended), required
+   modules are listed on the installer page.
 4. php.ini options:
    - error_reporting E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE (or lower)
    - file_uploads on (For import/image upload features)
 5. Any of the following database engines:
-   - Mysql
+   - Mysql(i)
    - PostGreSQL
    - SQLite (not quite!)

-serendipity consists of 3 parts:
-
-1. Function library / API
-   -serendipity_admin_entries.inc.php
-   -serendipity_admin_overview.inc.php
-   -serendipity_config.inc.php
-   -serendipity_functions.inc.php
-   -lang/serendipity_lang_*.inc.php
-   These files are never loaded in the browser, but included (as their
-   suffix suggests).
-
-3. Sample usage of the API
-  -layout.php (in templates/[theme]/)
-   This file displays the calendar, the search field, and the diary entries.
-   You can either include this file somewhere in your site, or use the 
-   callback functions directly in your site. It's up to you. I designed this,
-   so you can quickly start off with a default layout :)
 
-4. Dummy page
-   -index.php
-   This file "simulates" your homepage, you can safely ignore it, it is mainly
-   for testing, whether serendipity works (currently it just prints a standard
-   HTML header and includes layout.php
