+    "This package is an implementation of about 6 major classes of statistical
+regression models.  Currently only fixed-effects models are implemented, i.e.,
+no random-effects models.  Many (150+) models and distributions are estimated
+by maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) or penalized MLE, using Fisher scoring.
+VGLMs can be loosely thought of as multivariate generalised linear models.")
