+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
+# Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
+# the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
+# You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.

+libsrs2: libsrs2 (Sender Rewriting Scheme library)
+libsrs2:
+libsrs2: libsrs2 is the next generation SRS library from the original
+libsrs2: designer of SRS. It implements the Sender Rewriting Scheme, a part of
+libsrs2: the SPF/SRS protocol pair.
+libsrs2:
+libsrs2: SPF (and related systems) present a challenge to forwarders, since
+libsrs2: the envelope sender address might be seen by the destination as a
+libsrs2: forgery by the forwarding host. Forwarding services must rewrite the
+libsrs2: envelope sender address, while encapsulating the original sender and
+libsrs2: preventing relay attacks by spammers.
