<h1>{{ _("Electronic payments for a liberal society!") }}</h1>
<p>{{ _("Taler is a new electronic payment system under development
at <a href=\"http://www.inria.fr/\">Inria</a>. This community Web site
provides extensive documentation about the system, which we expect to
make operational in 2017.") }}</p>

<h2>{{ _("Taxable") }}</h2>
<p>{{ _("Unlike BitCoin or cash payments, Taler ensures that
governments can learn their citizen's total income and thus collect
sales, value-added or income taxes. Taler is thus a currency for the
mainstream economy, and not the black market.") }}</p>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-4">
<h2>{{ _("Anonymous") }}</h2>
<p>{{ _("When you pay with Taler, your identity does not have to
be revealed to the merchant. The bank, government and exchange will also
never learn how you spent your electronic cash. However, you have
proof that you paid for use in court if necessary.") }}</p>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-4">
<h2>{{ _("Libre") }}</h2>
<p>{{ _("Taler is free software from <a href=\"http://www.gnu.org/\">the GNU project</a> implementing an open protocol.
Anybody is welcome to inspect our code and integrate our reference
implementation into their applications. The payment system will
thus foster competition instead of putting some vendor in control.") }}</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-4">
<h2>{{ _("Electronic") }}</h2>
<p>{{ _("Taler is designed to work on the Internet. Using a
so-called RESTful protocol over HTTP or HTTPS, Taler is easy to
integrate with existing Web applications. Taler requires
participants to be online when they make payments.") }}</p>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-4">
<h2>{{ _("Reserves") }}</h2>
<p>{{ _("Taler uses payment providers which hold financial
reserves in escrow accounts denominated in existing currencies.
This means that Taler does not introduce
a new currency with the inherent currency fluctuation risks.
Taler's cryptographic coins correspond to existing currencies, such as
US Dollars, Euros or even BitCoins.") }}</p>
