+      (description
+       "Calispel is a Common Lisp library for thread-safe message-passing
+channels, in the style of the occam programming language, also known as
+communicating sequential processes (CSP).  See
+@url{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communicating_sequential_processes}.
+
+Calispel channels let one thread communicate with another, facilitating
+unidirectional communication of any Lisp object.  Channels may be unbuffered,
+where a sender waits for a receiver (or vice versa) before either operation can
+continue, or channels may be buffered with flexible policy options.
+
+Because sending and receiving on a channel may block, either operation can time
+out after a specified amount of time.
+
+A syntax for alternation is provided (like @code{ALT} in occam, or Unix
+@code{select()}): given a sequence of operations, any or all of which may
+block, alternation selects the first operation that doesn't block and executes
+associated code.  Alternation can also time out, executing an \"otherwise\"
+clause if no operation becomes available within a set amount of time.
+
+Calispel is a message-passing library, and as such leaves the role of
+threading abstractions and utilities left to be filled by complementary
+libraries such as Bordeaux-Threads and Eager Future.")
