=head1 SYNOPSIS
+ # for the most part, this protocol is internal
+ # and not for public usage, but this how one
+ # might use it
+
+ package Foo;
+
+ use strict;
+ use warnings;
+ use metaclass (
+ ':instance_metaclass' => 'ArrayBasedStorage::Instance',
+ );
+
+ # now Foo->new produces blessed ARRAY ref based objects
+
=head1 DESCRIPTION
+This is a sub-protocol which governs instance creation
+and access to the slots of the instance structure.
+
+This may seem like over-abstraction, but by abstracting
+this process into a sub-protocol we make it possible to
+easily switch the details of how an object's instance is
+stored with minimal impact. In most cases just subclassing
+this class will be all you need to do (see the examples;
+F<examples/ArrayBasedStorage.pod> and
+F<examples/InsideOutClass.pod> for details).
+
=head1 METHODS
=over 4
-=item B<new>
+=item B<new ($meta, @attrs)>
+
+Creates a new instance meta-object and gathers all the slots from
+the list of C<@attrs> given.
+
+=item B<meta>
+
+This will return a B<Class::MOP::Class> instance which is related
+to this class.
+
+=back
+
+=head2 Creation of Instances
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<create_instance>
+
+This creates the appropriate structure needed for the instance and
+then calls C<bless_instance_structure> to bless it into the class.
-=item B<add_slot>
+=item B<bless_instance_structure ($instance_structure)>
-=item B<has_slot>
+This does just exactly what it says it does.
-=item B<get_slot_value>
+=item B<clone_instance ($instance_structure)>
-=item B<set_slot_value>
+=back
+
+=head2 Instrospection
-=item B<get_instance>
+NOTE: There might be more methods added to this part of the API,
+we will add then when we need them basically.
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<associated_metaclass>
+
+=item B<get_all_slots>
+
+This will return the current list of slots based on what was
+given to this object in C<new>.
+
+=item B<is_valid_slot ($slot_name)>
=back
-=head2 Introspection
+=head2 Operations on Instance Structures
+
+An important distinction of this sub-protocol is that the
+instance meta-object is a different entity from the actual
+instance it creates. For this reason, any actions on slots
+require that the C<$instance_structure> is passed into them.
=over 4
-=item B<meta>
+=item B<get_slot_value ($instance_structure, $slot_name)>
-This will return a B<Class::MOP::Class> instance which is related
-to this class.
+=item B<set_slot_value ($instance_structure, $slot_name, $value)>
+
+=item B<initialize_slot ($instance_structure, $slot_name)>
+
+=item B<deinitialize_slot ($instance_structure, $slot_name)>
+

+
+=head2 Inlineable Instance Operations
+
+This part of the API is currently un-used. It is there for use
+in future experiments in class finailization mostly. Best to
+ignore this for now.
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<is_inlinable>
+
+Each meta-instance should override this method to tell Class::MOP if it's
+possible to inline the slot access.
+
+This is currently only used by Class::MOP::Class::Immutable when performing
+optimizations.
