+Active Model
+==============
+
+Totally experimental library that aims to extract common model mixins from
+ActiveRecord for use in ActiveResource (and other similar libraries).
+This is in a very rough state (no autotest or spec rake tasks set up yet),
+so please excuse the mess.
+
+Here's what I plan to extract:
+ * ActiveModel::Observing
+ * ActiveModel::Callbacks
+ * ActiveModel::Validations
+
+ # for ActiveResource params and ActiveRecord options
+ * ActiveModel::Scoping
+
+ # to_json, to_xml, etc
+ * ActiveModel::Serialization
+
+I'm trying to keep ActiveRecord compatibility where possible, but I'm
+annotating the spots where I'm diverging a bit. \ No newline at end of file
