+Welcome to the [OpenAFS][2] wiki. This is a web-based collaboration for
+collecting, maintaining, and distributing information about OpenAFS, an
+open-source implementation of the AFS distributed filesystem.
+
+OpenAFS is a caching, distributed, network-based filesystem for securely and
+efficiently sharing files over a private network or over the internet.  OpenAFS
+stores files on file servers. OpenAFS clients read and write data to
+the file servers. Data is cached locally by clients, making subsequent reads
+very fast.  File servers automatically notify clients when data is
+changed, keeping data in sync.  OpenAFS clients integrate with the client
+operating system to create a seamless network file system.  Client side support
+is provided for wide-range of operating systems, including Windows, MacOS,
+Solaris, and Linux.
+
+### Key features
+
+  * global namespace
+  * location transparency
+  * client-side caching
+  * read-only replication
+  * access control lists
+  * kerberos integration
