+     "This crate provides a stable, safe and scoped threadpool.  It can be used
+to execute a number of short-lived jobs in parallel without the need to respawn
+the underlying threads.  Jobs are runnable by borrowing the pool for a given
+scope, during which an arbitrary number of them can be executed. These jobs can
+access data of any lifetime outside of the pools scope, which allows working on
+non-'static references in parallel.")
