+ <longdescription>The simplegeneric module lets you define simple single-dispatch
+ generic functions, akin to Python's built-in generic functions like len(),
+ iter() and so on. However, instead of using specially-named methods, these
+ generic functions use simple lookup tables, akin to those used by
+ e.g. pickle.dump() and other generic functions found in the Python
+ standard library.</longdescription>
