+'''Roundup - issue tracking for knowledge workers.
+
+This is a simple-to-use and -install issue-tracking system with
+command-line, web and e-mail interfaces.
+
+Roundup manages a number of issues (with properties such as
+"description", "priority", and so on) and provides the ability to (a) submit
+new issues, (b) find and edit existing issues, and (c) discuss issues with
+other participants. The system will facilitate communication among the
+participants by managing discussions and notifying interested parties when
+issues are edited.
+
+Roundup's structure is that of a cake::
+
+ _________________________________________________________________________
+ | E-mail Client | Web Browser | Detector Scripts | Shell |
+ |------------------+-----------------+----------------------+-------------|
+ | E-mail User | Web User | Detector | Command |
+ |-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+ | Roundup Database Layer |
+ |-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+ | Hyperdatabase Layer |
+ |-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+ | Storage Layer |
+ -------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+1. The first layer represents the users (chocolate).
+2. The second layer is the Roundup interface to the users (vanilla).
+3. The third and fourth layers are the internal Roundup database storage
+ mechanisms (strawberry).
+4. The final, lowest layer is the underlying database storage (rum).
+
+These are implemented in the code in the following manner::
+
+ E-mail User: roundup-mailgw and roundup.mailgw
+ Web User: cgi-bin/roundup.cgi or roundup-server over
+ roundup.cgi.client and roundup.cgi.template
+ Detector: roundup.roundupdb and templates/<template>/detectors
+ Command: roundup-admin
+ Roundup DB: roundup.roundupdb
+ Hyper DB: roundup.hyperdb, roundup.date
+ Storage: roundup.backends.*
+
+Additionally, there is a directory of unit tests in "test".
+
+For more information, see the original overview and specification documents
+written by Ka-Ping Yee in the "doc" directory. If nothing else, it has a
+much prettier cake :)
