+SimPy
+=====
+
+SimPy is a process-based discrete-event simulation language based on
+standard Python and released under the GNU LGPL.
+
+It provides the modeller with components of a simulation model. These
+include processes for active components like customers, messages and
+vehicles as well as resources for passive components that form limited
+capacity congestion points (like servers, checkout counters and
+tunnels). It also provides monitor variables to aid in gathering
+statistics. SimPy comes with extensive plotting capabilities.
+
+The distribution contains in-depth documentation, tutorials, and a large
+number of simulation models.
+
+To build documentation, pass DOCS=yes to the slackbuild. Requires the
+optional dependency Sphinx.
