+What is this and what is it for?
+--------------------------------
+
+cookies.py is a Python module for working with HTTP cookies: parsing and
+rendering 'Cookie:' request headers and 'Set-Cookie:' response headers,
+and exposing a convenient API for creating and modifying cookies. It can be
+used as a replacement of Python's Cookie.py (aka http.cookies).
+
+Features
+--------
+
+* Rendering according to the excellent new RFC 6265
+ (rather than using a unique ad hoc format inconsistently relating to
+ unrealistic, very old RFCs which everyone ignored). Uses URL encoding to
+ represent non-ASCII by default, like many other languages' libraries
+* Liberal parsing, incorporating many complaints about Cookie.py barfing
+ on common cookie formats which can be reliably parsed (e.g. search 'cookie'
+ on the Python issue tracker)
+* Well-documented code, with chapter and verse from RFCs
+ (rather than arbitrary, undocumented decisions and huge tables of magic
+ values, as you see in Cookie.py).
+* Test coverage at 100%, with a much more comprehensive test suite
+ than Cookie.py
+* Single-source compatible with the following Python versions:
+ 2.6, 2.7, 3.2, 3.3 and PyPy (2.7).
+* Cleaner, less surprising API::
+
+ # old Cookie.py - this code is all directly from its docstring
+ >>> from Cookie import SmartCookie
+ >>> C = SmartCookie()
+ >>> # n.b. it's "smart" because it automatically pickles Python objects,
+ >>> # which is actually quite stupid for security reasons!
+ >>> C["rocky"] = "road"
+ >>> C["rocky"]["path"] = "/cookie"
+ >>> # So C["rocky"] is a string, except when it's a dict...
+ >>> # and why do I have to write [""] to access a fixed set of attrs?
+ >>> # Look at the atrocious way I render out a request header:
+ >>> C.output(attrs=[], header="Cookie:")
+ 'Cookie: rocky=road'
+
+ # new cookies.py
+ >>> from cookies import Cookies, Cookie
+ >>> cookies = Cookies(rocky='road')
+ >>> # Can also write explicitly: cookies['rocky'] = Cookie['road']
+ >>> cookies['rocky'].path = "/cookie"
+ >>> cookies.render_request()
+ 'rocky=road'
+* Friendly to customization, extension, and reuse of its parts.
+ Unlike Cookie.py, it doesn't lock all implementation inside its own classes
+ (forcing you to write ugly wrappers as Django, Trac, Werkzeug/Flask, web.py
+ and Tornado had to do). You can suppress minor parse exceptions with
+ parameters rather than subclass wrappers. You can plug in your own parsers,
+ renderers and validators for new or existing cookie attributes. You can
+ render the data out in a dict. You can easily use the underlying imperative
+ API or even lift the parser's regexps for your own parser or project. They
+ are very well documented and relate directly to RFCs, so you know exactly
+ what you are getting and why. It's MIT-licensed so do
+ what you want (but I'd love to know what use you are getting from it!)
+* One file, so you can just drop cookies.py into your project if you like
+* MIT license, so you can use it in whatever you want with no strings
+
+Things this is not meant to do
+------------------------------
+While this is intended to be a good module for handling cookies, it does not
+even try to do any of the following:
+
+* Maintain backward compatibility with Cookie.py, which would mean
+ inheriting its confusions and bugs
+* Implement RFCs 2109 or 2965, which have always been ignored by almost
+ everyone and are now obsolete as well
+* Handle every conceivable output from terrible legacy apps, which is not
+ possible to do without lots of silent data loss and corruption (the
+ parser does try to be liberal as possible otherwise, though)
+* Provide a means to store pickled Python objects in cookie values
+ (that's a big security hole)
+
+This doesn't compete with the cookielib (http.cookiejar) module in the Python
+standard library, which is specifically for implementing cookie storage and
+similar behavior in an HTTP client such as a browser. Things cookielib does
+that this doesn't:
+
+* Write to or read from browsers' cookie stores or other proprietary
+ formats for storing cookie data in files
+* Handle the browser/client logic like deciding which cookies to send or
+ discard, etc.
+
+If you are looking for a cookie library but neither this one nor cookielib
+will help, you might also consider the implementations in WebOb or Bottle.
