+ (description
+ "This package aims to provide a one-stop solution to requirements for
+footnotes. It offers: Multiple footnote apparatus superior to that of
+@code{manyfoot}. Footnotes can be formatted in separate paragraphs, or be run
+into a single paragraph (this choice may be selected per footnote series);
+Things you might have expected (such as @code{\\verb}-like material in
+footnotes, and color selections over page breaks) now work. Note that the
+majority of the bigfoot package's interface is identical to that of
+@code{manyfoot}; users should seek information from that package's
+documentation. The bigfoot bundle also provides the @code{perpage} and
+@code{suffix} packages.")
