     1  CockroachDB technical notes
     2  ============================
     3  
     4  This directory contains documents written by CockroachDB contributors
     5  for other CockroachDB contributors. These documents are aimed to ease
     6  onboarding and capture organizational knowledge.
     7  
     8  Technical notes differ from RFCs in that they describe the state of
     9  the project as it *currently* is, not the way we wish it to be.
    10  
    11  Standard disclaimer: each document contains parts from one or more
    12  author. Each part was authored to reflect its author's perspective on
    13  the project at the time it was written. This understanding is
    14  necessarily subjective: its context is both the state of the project
    15  and the authors', and their reviewers', experience around that
    16  particular date. In case of doubt, consult your local historian and
    17  your repository's timeline.

    19  Of course, updates and corrections are welcome at any time.
