+    (description
+     "This package provides a fast generic solver for sparse group lasso
+optimization problems.  The loss (objective) function must be defined in a C++
+module.  The optimization problem is solved using a coordinate gradient
+descent algorithm.  Convergence of the algorithm is established and the
+algorithm is applicable to a broad class of loss functions.  Use of parallel
+computing for cross validation and subsampling is supported through the
+@code{foreach} and @code{doParallel} packages.")
