+C++ types in Python and vice versa, mainly to create Python bindings of
+existing C++ code.  Its goals and syntax are similar to the excellent
+Boost.Python library by David Abrahams: to minimize boilerplate code in
+traditional extension modules by inferring type information using compile-time
+introspection.")
