+ (description
+ "This package provides a custom prelude with no dependencies apart from
+the base package.
+
+Foundation has the following goals:
+
+@enumerate
+@item provide a base like sets of modules that provide a consistent set of
+ features and bugfixes across multiple versions of GHC (unlike base).
+@item provide a better and more efficient prelude than base's prelude.
+@item be self-sufficient: no external dependencies apart from base;
+@item provide better data-types: packed unicode string by default, arrays;
+@item Numerical classes that better represent mathematical things (no more
+ all-in-one @code{Num});
+@item I/O system with less lazy IO.
+@end enumerate\n")
