+"""One of the oft-cited tenets of Python is that it is better to ask
+forgiveness than permission. That is, there are many cases where it is
+more inclusive and correct to handle exceptions than spend extra lines
+and execution time checking for conditions. This philosophy makes good
+exception handling features all the more important. Unfortunately
+Python's :mod:`traceback` module is woefully behind the times.
+
+The ``tbutils`` module provides two disparate but complementary featuresets:
+
+  1. With :class:`ExceptionInfo` and :class:`TracebackInfo`, the
+     ability to extract, construct, manipulate, format, and serialize
+     exceptions, tracebacks, and callstacks.
+  2. With :class:`ParsedException`, the ability to find and parse tracebacks
+     from captured output such as logs and stdout.
+
+There is also the :class:`ContextualTracebackInfo` variant of
+:class:`TracebackInfo`, which includes much more information from each
+frame of the callstack, including values of locals and neighboring
+lines of code.
