+SUMMARY="MessagePack (de)serializer for Python"
+DESCRIPTION="MessagePack is an efficient binary serialization format. It lets \
+you exchange data among multiple languages like JSON. But it's faster and \
+smaller. Small integers are encoded into a single byte, and typical short \
+strings require only one extra byte in addition to the strings themselves."
