 <h3>1. Scratching an itch</h3>
 
+<p>
 I give a lot of credit to Gradle for having open a brand new avenue in build tools but despite all its power and flexibility and the fact that I've used Gradle for more than five years, I've never really felt comfortable or fluent with it. Even today, I regularly find myself spending a lot of time on StackOverflow whenever I need to do something a bit out of the ordinary with my Gradle builds.

 <h3>2. An experiment</h3>
 
+<p>
 I wanted to see for myself if my discomfort with Gradle was justified or if, by trying to write a build tool myself, I would end up with a very similar tool with similar strengths and weaknesses. I still haven't made up my mind about this but I will certainly by the time Kobalt reaches 1.0.

 <h3>3. A proof of concept</h3>
 
+<p>
 I have been a fervent believer that there is nothing that dynamically typed languages can do today that statically typed languages can't. Groovy's meta model and features have enabled a lot of clever tricks (DSL and others) for Gradle builds and I was really curious if I could put money where my mouth is by creating a similar project with Kotlin. This experiment is still ongoing but by now, I'm pretty convinced that the answer is a resounding "yes".

 <h3>4. An excuse to write Kotlin</h3>
 
+<p>
 Just a personal thing. After toying with the language for almost four years now, I wanted to take my efforts to the next level and push the language to the limit. So far, the language has held all its promises and then some.
