URL: https://github.com/apache/iceberg/issues/9127

   ### Apache Iceberg version
   
   None
   
   ### Query engine
   
   None
   
   ### Please describe the bug 🐞
   
   Looking at the ReadMe in the root of this repository, one would be mistaken 
for thinking we're living in Table v1 times.
   
   **Quote start:**
   
   Iceberg is under active development at the Apache Software Foundation.
   
   The core Java library that tracks table snapshots and metadata is complete, 
but still evolving. Current work is focused on adding row-level deletes and 
upserts, and integration work with new engines like Flink and Hive.
   
   The [Iceberg format specification](https://iceberg.apache.org/spec) is being 
actively updated and is open for comment. Until the specification is complete 
and released, it carries no compatibility guarantees. The spec is currently 
evolving as the Java reference implementation changes.
   
   [Java API javadocs](https://iceberg.apache.org/javadoc/latest) are available 
for the main.
   
   **Quote end**
   
   That last sentence seems incomplete. But more importantly, I think the 
information provided is, today at least, no longer correct. I've been told 
there _are_ compatibility guarantees, and what's being worked on today is 
probably no longer row-level deletes and upserts.
   
   I would like to suggest that an update, or perhaps a slimming down of the 
text, is overdue.
