 This document discribes the server sync protocol.
 
+# PURPOSE #
+This protocol will be used to share the models (currently imageboard posts)
+across multiple servers. The main differnce of this protocol is that the node
+can specify what models it wants to get and from whom. The nodes can get
+models from a specific server, or from all except some specific servers. Also
+the models can be filtered by timestamps or tags.
