+SUMMARY="Auckland Layout Editor (ALE): \
+A GUI Editor to create and edit constraint-based layouts."
+DESCRIPTION="The Auckland Layout Editor (ALE) is a constraint-based layout \
+editor that is based on the BALMLayout layout class. The constraint-based \
+layout model is very powerful and can describe layouts that can't be described \
+with other layout models, like for example, the grid-bag layout model. Layouts \
+created with ALE are automatically resizable and non-overlapping. This means \
+while editing a layout you can't create a layout that has two overlapping \
+views. Furthermore, layouts created with ALE have no conflicting constraints.
+ALE provides a small but powerful set of edit operations. These edit \
+operations keep views automatically aligned to each other. This makes \
+creating and editing layouts very easy.
