+## Stacked Borrows: Table of Contents
+
+Before we start, let me give a brief overview over the posts on Stacked Borrows that I have written so far.
+I didn't plan this out in advance, so things are a bit more messy than I would like.
+
+* [Stacked Borrows: An Aliasing Model For Rust]({% post_url 2018-08-07-stacked-borrows %}) is the first post of the series and describes my initial ideas of what Stacked Borrows would look like before I started implementing them. It might be interesting for some of the context it gives, but is largely superseded by the next post.
+* [Stacked Borrows Implemented]({% post_url 2018-11-16-stacked-borrows-implementation %}) describes Stacked Borrows 1 and my experience implementing it. It is self-contained; I was not happy with some of my explanations in the original post so I decided to give it another shot. This is the best post to start with, if you are catching up.
+* [Barriers and Two-phase Borrows in Stacked Borrows]({% post_url 2018-12-26-stacked-borrows-barriers %}) describes how I extended Stacked Borrows 1 with partial support for two-phase borrows and explains the idea of "barriers". You do not have to have read that post to understand Stacked Borrows 2, except for the parts that specifically refer to barriers and two-phase borrows.

 ## The problem
 
-The problem I wanted to solve was that the first version of Stacked Borrows only performed very little tracking of shared references.
+The problem I wanted to solve with Stacked Borrows 2 was that the first version of Stacked Borrows only performed very little tracking of shared references.
 My thinking was, if the location is read-only anyway, then it does not harm to grant anyone read access.
 However, [as @arielby noted](https://github.com/rust-lang/unsafe-code-guidelines/issues/87), this leads to loss of optimization potential in cases where a function receives a mutable reference (which is supposed to have no aliases) and then creates a shared reference from it:
