+SUMMARY = "Perl module for reading and writing XML"
+DESCRIPTION = "The XML::Simple Perl module provides a simple API layer \
+on top of an underlying XML parsing module to maintain XML files \
+(especially configuration files). It is a blunt rewrite of XML::Simple \
+(by Grant McLean) to use the XML::LibXML parser for XML structures, \
+where the original uses plain Perl or SAX parsers."
