	<longdescription>
		This package provides functionality for generalizing the deriving mechanism
		in Haskell to arbitrary classes. It was first described in the paper:
		
		*  /A generic deriving mechanism for Haskell/.
		Jose Pedro Magalhaes, Atze Dijkstra, Johan Jeuring, and Andres Loeh.
		Haskell&#39;10.
		
		The current implementation integrates with the new GHC Generics. See
		&lt;http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Generics&gt; for more information.
		Template Haskell code is provided for supporting GHC before version 7.2.
