Fair enough. Personally, I thought the Q&A on that link was pretty helpful:

What is Runway Status Lights (RWSL)?
What are Runway Entrance Lights (RELs)?
What are Takeoff Hold Lights (THLs)?
What are the benefits of RWSL?
How do the lights work?
What precautions should be taken if verbal clearance is received from the tower, but the lights are illuminated?
What airports are receiving RWSL?
What do the lights look like and how are they installed?
How are the lights different from other runway warning lights?
Does RWSL communicate with other safety systems?
How does the system vary from one designated airport to the next?
What is the program doing to educate people?
