+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+This module mediates between some version that perl sees in a package
+and the version that is published by the CPAN indexer.
+.PP
+It's only written as a helper module for both CPAN.pm and CPANPLUS.pm.
+.PP
+As it stands it predates version.pm but has the same goal: make
+version strings visible and comparable.
