Thanks. I went through the README and it definitely looks better now.
I've noticed two minor typos:
1) That is solved this by creating ... - extra "this"
2) Given this, routines like pfree their corresponding context ... - missing "find" or "determine"
I also see you've explicitly mentioned the callbacks were added in 9.5.
Doesn't that somewhat reintroduce the historical account?
