-Trac is a '''minimalistic''' approach to '''web-based''' management of
-'''software projects'''. Its goal is to simplify effective tracking and handling of software issues, enhancements and overall progress.
+'''Triton''' is the name of the multimedia subsystem being developed for '''Voyager'''.
+It is designed to be a modular and easily extendable, plugin-based system.
 
-All aspects of Trac have been designed with the single goal to 
-'''help developers write great software''' while '''staying out of the way'''
-and imposing as little as possible on a team's established process and
-culture.
+== About Triton ==
 
-As all Wiki pages, this page is editable, this means that you can
-modify the contents of this page simply by using your
-web-browser. Simply click on the "Edit this page" link at the bottom
-of the page. WikiFormatting will give you a detailed description of
-available Wiki formatting commands.
+Triton itself is not a multimedia player. It is a well-defined subsystem, which contains
+a core library to provide an easy-to-use API for the application developers to visualize and control
+multimedia contents, and an easy-to-use API for the plugin developers to be able to extend the system
+with support of new multimedia formats.
 
-"[wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin] ''yourenvdir'' initenv" created
-a new Trac environment, containing a default set of wiki pages and some sample
-data. This newly created environment also contains 
-[wiki:TracGuide documentation] to help you get started with your project.
+However, the Triton API was designed to be as simple and easy as possible, so that it can be
+used anywhere. Writing a multimedia player based on it is very easy, and Triton itself even has some
+sample applications for it.
 
-You can use [wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin] to configure
-[http://trac.edgewall.com/ Trac] to better fit your project, especially in
-regard to ''components'', ''versions'' and ''milestones''. 
+== The Future ==
 
-
-TracGuide is a good place to start.

-Enjoy! [[BR]]
-''The Trac Team''
+While Triton itself is only for playback of multimedia contents right now, it's planned that the system 
+will be extended to be able to record them too, so that it will be possible to create such contents with 
+Triton, or to transcode between different supported formats.
