+This package provides some low-level utilities to use for package
+development. It currently provides managers for multiple package
+specific options and registries, vignette, unit test and bibtex
+related utilities. It serves as a base package for packages like
+NMF, RcppOctave, doRNG, and as an incubator package for other general
+purposes utilities, that will eventually be packaged separately.
+It is still under heavy development and changes in the interface(s)
+are more than likely to happen.
