+## @mainpage
+##
+## Python OpenSSL Wrappers (POW) is an old (but well-written)
+## interface between Python and OpenSSL (ok, you could have guessed
+## that from the name). Sadly, it appears to have fallen by the
+## wayside, and M2Crypto is getting a lot more attention these days.
+##
+## POW ships with a submodule, POW.pkix, which includes a wonderful
+## set of pure-Python routines for dealing with ASN.1 encodings of
+## X.509v3 certificates, extensions, and related data. I haven't
+## found anything as good anywhere else. This code deserves to be
+## salvaged and put to work.
