+    (description
+     "Eventlet is a concurrent networking library for Python that
+allows you to change how you run your code, not how you write it.
+It uses @code{epoll} or @code{libevent} for highly scalable non-blocking I/O.
+Coroutines ensure that the developer uses a blocking style of programming
+that is similar to threading, but provide the benefits of non-blocking I/O.
+The event dispatch is implicit, which means you can easily use @code{Eventlet}
+from the Python interpreter, or as a small part of a larger application.")
