+
+The Haskell Cryptography Group is calling for early adopters of [Sel][sel] and [botan-low], which respectively provide
+reliable and well-documented bindings to [libsodium][libsodium] and [botan].
+
+We want to gather feedback from industrial and hobbyist users on the documentation and ergonomics of these libraries,
+as this will help us serve users better in the future.
+
+In particular, we want to know if the example usages provided in the documentation help, and how they could be improved.
+
+You can use these libraries today by adding them to your cabal file:
+
+```haskell
+botan-low ^>=0.0.1,
+```
+
+and
+
+```haskell
+sel ^>=0.0.1,
+```
+
+For security reasons, the bindings do not bundle the underlying C and C++ libraries, you have to install them yourself.
+
+Please let us know if you have any issue on the the ticket trackers:
