 %description
 Moose is an extension of the Perl 5 object system.
 
+Yes, I know there has been an explosion recently of new ways to build
+objects in Perl 5, most of them based on inside-out objects and other
+such things. Moose is different because it is not a new object system
+for Perl 5, but instead an extension of the existing object system.
+
+Moose is built on top of Class::MOP, which is a metaclass system for
+Perl 5. This means that Moose not only makes building normal Perl 5
+objects better, but it also provides the power of metaclass programming.
+
+While Moose is very much inspired by Perl 6, it is not itself Perl
+6.  Instead, it is an OO system for Perl 5. I built Moose because I was
+tired or writing the same old boring Perl 5 OO code, and drooling over
+Perl 6 OO. So instead of switching to Ruby, I wrote Moose :)
