-<p>
-libsigc++ implements a typesafe callback system for standard C++. It
-allows you to define signals and to connect those signals to any
-callback function, either global or a member function, regardless of
-whether it is static or virtual.
-</p>
-<p>
-It also contains adaptor classes for connection of dissimilar
-callbacks and has an ease of use unmatched by other
-C++ callback libraries. Libsigc++ is licensed under
-the GNU Library General Public License, <a href="http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/lgpl.html">LGPL</a>.

-<ul>
- <li>Compile time typesafe callbacks (faster than run time checks)</li>
- <li>Typesafety violations report line number correctly with
- template names (no tracing template failures into headers)</li>
- <li>No compiler extensions or meta compilers required</li>
- <li>Proper handling of dynamic objects and signals
- (deleted objects will not cause seg faults)</li>
- <li>Extendable API at any level:
- signal, slot, connection and trackable</li>
- <li>Extensions do not require alteration of basic components</li>
- <li>User definable accumulators</li>
- <li>A variety of adaptors to change the callback signature:
- bind, hide, retype, compose</li>
- <li>Most C++ compilers can be used. libsigc++ version 2.5.1 and later require
- a compiler with C++11 support</li>
-</ul>

-<p>The original library was composed by Tero Pulkkinen for the
-gtkmm system, a C++ wrapper for the Gtk+ widget set. The revised
-library was written and mantained by Karl Nelson. Special thanks
-to Esa Pulkkinen for development tips.
-The 1.2 phase was maintained by Murray Cumming after Karl provided the initial 1.2 code.
-A long 1.9 phase led to the major release 2.0, previously maintained by Martin Schulze,
-and then maintained by Murray Cumming and Kjell Ahlstedt.</p>
-<p>Then libsigc++ was rewritten for C++14 using variadic templates, for major release 3.0,
-currently maintained by Murray Cumming and Kjell Ahlstedt.</p>
