+     "This package provides first class functional references.  In addition to
+the usual operations of getting, setting and composition, plus integration
+with the state monad, lens families provide some unique features:
+
+@itemize
+@item Polymorphic updating
+@item Traversals
+@item Cast projection functions to read-only lenses
+@item Cast @code{toList} functions to read-only traversals
+@item Cast semantic editor combinators to modify-only traversals
+@end itemize
+
+For optimal first-class support use the lens-family package with rank 2/rank N
+polymorphism.  @code{Lens.Family.Clone} allows for first-class support of
+lenses and traversals for those who require Haskell 98.")
