-This is a beta version of a new module "Module::Build". It is meant to
-be a replacement for "ExtUtils::MakeMaker".
+Module::Build is a system for building, testing, and installing Perl
+modules. It is meant to be a replacement for ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
+Developers may alter the behavior of the module through subclassing in
+a much more straightforward way than with MakeMaker. It also does not
+require a make on your system - most of the Module::Build code is
+pure-perl and written in a very cross-platform way.
