-# The Grid
-The Grid is a fork of the Matrix protocol with a different set of core values and a true community management.  
-It aims to be care more for privacy and much more friendly to self-hosted infrastructures.
+# The Grid protocol
+The Grid is a Push-Native, Federated and Decentralised Event bus designed around privacy ([EU GDPR](https://eugdpr.org/)) and self-hosting. It is an alternative protocol to Matrix.
 
 ## Status
-We are currently putting it all together before official kickoff.
+We are currently building the first client and server implementations, and a first test network is online.
 
 See the [Sunrise](https://gitlab.com/thegridprotocol/home/milestones/1) milestone for the current progress.
 
 ## Documents
 The following bootstrap documents explain what The Grid is in more details, how it came to be, differences with Matrix,
 how the protocol will be managed by the non-profit and how documentation should take place.

 - [Project Overview](docs/overview.md)
 - [Governing Body](docs/governing-body.md)
 - [Documentation Principles](docs/doc-principles.md)
 
+## Getting Started
+
+The protocol specification is currently hosted in the [Specification](https://gitlab.com/thegridprotocol/docs/spec) group. Please also look at [the open Merge Requests](https://gitlab.com/groups/thegridprotocol/docs/spec/-/merge_requests) which will contain the Work In Progress. Reviews are extremely welcome!
+
+You can join the test network using [Gridepo](https://gitlab.com/kamax-io/grid/gridepo) and either a Matrix client or [Soler](https://gitlab.com/kamax-io/grid/soler). Please let us know if you start working on your own implementations: we will add them here so people can try them out too.
+
+> **WARNING:** The test rooms on the test network are often reset to allow upgrades of algorithms and databases until the specification has reached v0.1
