+=========================
+ ``importlib_metadata``
+=========================
+
+``importlib_metadata`` is a library to access the metadata for a Python
+package. It is intended to be ported to Python 3.8.
+
+
+Usage
+=====
+
+See the `online documentation <https://importlib_metadata.readthedocs.io/>`_
+for usage details.
+
+`Finder authors
+<https://docs.python.org/3/reference/import.html#finders-and-loaders>`_ can
+also add support for custom package installers. See the above documentation
+for details.
+
+
+Caveats
+=======
+
+This project primarily supports third-party packages installed by PyPA
+tools (or other conforming packages). It does not support:
+
+- Packages in the stdlib.
+- Packages installed without metadata.
