+#### References
+
+References, or pointers, are values that refer to another value.  They
+can only refer to a `struct`, though as a struct can embed anything they
+can effectively refer to anything.
+
+References are potentially dangerous as they might refer to some
+variable which no longer exists - either because a stack frame
+containing it has been discarded or because the value was allocated on
+the heap and has now been free.  Ocean does not yet provide any
+protection against these problems.  It will in due course.
+
+With references comes the opportunity and the need to explicitly
+allocate values on the "heap" and to free them.  We currently provide
+fairly basic support for this.
+
+Reference make use of the `@` symbol in various ways.  A type that starts
+with `@` is a reference to whatever follows.  A reference value
+followed by an `@` acts as the referred value, though the `@` is often
+not needed.  Finally, an expression that starts with `@` is a special
+reference related expression.  Some examples might help.
+
+##### Example: Reference examples
+
+       struct foo
+               a: number
+               b: string
+       ref: @foo
+       bar: foo
+       bar.number = 23; bar.string = "hello"
+       baz: foo
+       ref = bar
+       baz = @ref
+       baz.a = ref.a * 2
+
+       ref = @new()
+       ref@ = baz
+       @free = ref
+       ref = @nil
+
+Obviously this is very contrived.  `ref` is a reference to a `foo` which
+is initially set to refer to the value stored in `bar` - no extra syntax
+is needed to "Take the address of" `bar` - the fact that `ref` is a
+reference means that only the address make sense.
+
+When `ref.a` is accessed, that is whatever value is stored in `bar.a`.
+The same syntax is used for accessing fields both in structs and in
+references to structs.  It would be correct to use `ref@.a`, but not
+necessary.
+
+`@new()` creates an object of whatever type is needed for the program
+to by type-correct.  In future iterations of Ocean, arguments a
+constructor will access arguments, so the the syntax now looks like a
+function call.  `@free` can be assigned any reference that was returned
+by `@new()`, and it will be freed.  `@nil` is a value of whatever
+reference type is appropriate, and is stable and never the address of
+anything in the heap or on the stack.  A reference can be assigned
+`@nil` or compared against that value.
