+SUMMARY = "Open-source software for volunteer computing"
+DESCRIPTION = "The Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC) is an open- \
+source software platform which supports distributed computing, primarily in \
+the form of volunteer computing and desktop Grid computing.  It is well \
+suited for problems which are often described as trivially parallel.  BOINC \
+is the underlying software used by projects such as SETI@home, Einstein@Home, \
+ClimatePrediciton.net, the World Community Grid, and many other distributed \
+computing projects. \
+This package installs the BOINC client software, which will allow your \
+computer to participate in one or more BOINC projects, using your spare \
+computer time to search for cures for diseases, model protein folding, study \
+global warming, discover sources of gravitational waves, and many other types \
+of scientific and mathematical research."
