=head1 DESCRIPTION
-DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader automate the definition of a
+THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT RELEASE. This is 0.01xxx, the first public
+releases. Expect things to be broken in various ways. Expect the
+entire design to be fatally flawed. Expect the interfaces to change if
+it becomes neccessary. It's mostly here for people to poke at it and
+find the flaws in it. 0.02 will hopefully have some sanity when we get
+there.
+
+DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader automates the definition of a
DBIx::Class::Schema by scanning table schemas and setting up
columns and primary keys.
L<DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Writing> for notes on writing your own
db-specific subclass for an unsupported db.
-L<Class::DBI::Loader>, L<Class::DBI>, and L<DBIx::Class::Loader> are now
-obsolete, use L<DBIx::Class> and this module instead. ;)

+This is an accessor in the generated Schema class for accessing
+the L<DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Generic> -based loader object
+that was used during construction. See the
+L<DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Generic> docs for more information
+on the available loader methods there.
