+    (description
+     "This package is a recurisve descent parsing library for Python based
on
+functional combinators.  Parser combinators are just higher-order functions
that
+take parsers as their arguments and return them as result values.  Parser
+combinators are:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item First-class values
+@item Extremely composable
+@item Tend to make the code quite compact
+@item Resemble the readable notation of xBNF grammars
+@end itemize
+
+Parsers made with funcparserlib are pure-Python LL(*) parsers.  It means
that
+it's very easy to write them without thinking about look-aheads and all
that
+hardcore parsing stuff.  But the recursive descent parsing is a rather slow
+method compared to LL(k) or LR(k) algorithms.
+
+So the primary domain for funcparserlib is parsing little languages or
external
+DSLs (domain specific languages).")
