+@node Introduction
+@chapter Introduction
+
+DRMAA stands for @dfn{Distributed Resource Management Application
+API}; it's a common specification implemented in different HPC cluster
+schedulers to allow for programmatic submission and management of
+compute jobs.
+
+There are two versions of the DRMAA specifications: most cluster
+scheduler systems support the old version 1.0; the more recent version
+2.0 has only few implementations.
+
+Guile DRMAA currently only provides bindings for version 1.0, allowing
+you to manage jobs on most cluster schedulers with Guile Scheme.

+@node Installation
+@chapter Installation
+
+Guile DRMAA uses the GNU build system.  To install Guile DRMAA from
+a release tarball just unpack it and run the usual commands:
+
+@example
+./configure
+make
+make install
+@end example
+
+If you want to build the sources from the source repository you need to
+bootstrap the build system first.  Run the @code{bootstrap.sh} script
+first and then perform the above steps.
