 """This module contains the implementation of both the client and server
 protocols.
 
-The basic structure of the protocol is line based, where the initial word of
-each line specifies the command. The rest of the line is parsed based on the
-command. For example, the `RDATA` command is defined as::
-
-    RDATA <stream_name> <token> <row_json>
-
-(Note that `<row_json>` may contains spaces, but cannot contain newlines.)
-
-Blank lines are ignored.
-
-# Example
-
-An example iteraction is shown below. Each line is prefixed with '>' or '<' to
-indicate which side is sending, these are *not* included on the wire::
-
-    * connection established *
-    > SERVER localhost:8823
-    > PING 1490197665618
-    < NAME synapse.app.appservice
-    < PING 1490197665618
-    < REPLICATE
-    > POSITION events 1
-    > POSITION backfill 1
-    > POSITION caches 1
-    > RDATA caches 2 ["get_user_by_id",["@01register-user:localhost:8823"],1490197670513]
-    > RDATA events 14 ["ev", ["$149019767112vOHxz:localhost:8823",
-        "!AFDCvgApUmpdfVjIXm:localhost:8823","m.room.guest_access","",null]]
-    < PING 1490197675618
-    > ERROR server stopping
-    * connection closed by server *
+An explanation of this protocol is available in docs/tcp_replication.md
