+.SH DESCRIPTION
+
+.P
+Towncrier is a utility to produce useful, summarised news files for your project.
+Rather than reading the Git history as some newer tools to produce it, or having
+one single file which developers all write to, towncrier reads "news fragments"
+which contain information useful to end users.
+
+.P
+Towncrier delivers the news which is convenient to those that hear it, not those
+that write it.
+
+.P
+That is, a “news fragment” (a small file containing just enough information to
+be useful to end users) can be written that summarises what has changed from the
+“developer log” (which may contain complex information about the original issue,
+how it was fixed, who authored the fix, and who reviewed the fix). By compiling
+a collection of these fragments, towncrier can produce a digest of the changes
+which is valuable to those who may wish to use the software.
