-Raise asynchronous exceptions in other threads, control the timeout of
-blocks or callables with two context managers and two decorators.
+The stopit python module provides the user with a function that raises an
+exception in another thread, including the main thread. It also provides two
+context managers that may stop its inner block activity on timeout and two
+decorators that may stop its decorated callables on timeout.
+
+This SlackBuild will build with Python 3 support if it is installed.
