+This directory contains snapshots of externally maintained libraries.
+To add a new library or release, import it into this repository, and
+use "svn copy" to copy relevant components to the trunk.
+
+This directory should not be used for development. The snapshots
+should be treated as readonly copies, with the possible exception for
+critical errors and security patches. When in doubt, consult with the
+python-dev team.
