+      python-future is the missing compatibility layer between Python 2 and
+      Python 3. It allows you to use a single, clean Python 3.x-compatible
+      codebase to support both Python 2 and Python 3 with minimal overhead.
+
+      It provides future and past packages with backports and forward ports
+      of features from Python 3 and 2. It also comes with futurize and
+      pasteurize, customized 2to3-based scripts that helps you to convert
+      either Py2 or Py3 code easily to support both Python 2 and 3 in a
+      single clean Py3-style codebase, module by module.
