+    (description
+     "This package provides pre-fit and post-fit methods for detecting separation
+and infinite maximum likelihood estimates in generalized linear models with
+categorical responses.  The pre-fit methods apply on binomial-response generalized
+liner models such as logit, probit and cloglog regression, and can be directly
+supplied as fitting methods to the @code{glm()} function.  The post-fit methods
+apply to models with categorical responses, including binomial-response
+generalized linear models and multinomial-response models, such as baseline
+category logits and adjacent category logits models; for example, the models
+implemented in the brglm2 package.  The post-fit methods successively refit the
+model with increasing number of iteratively reweighted least squares iterations,
+and monitor the ratio of the estimated standard error for each parameter to what
+it has been in the first iteration.")
