+     "This package provides an efficient algorithm for solving ultra-sparse
+regularized regression models using a variational Bayes algorithm with a spike
+prior.  The algorithm is solved on a path, with coordinate updates, and is
+capable of generating very sparse models.  Very general model
+diagnostics for controlling type-1 errors are also provided.")
