/**
- * io - simple library for stateful io handling.
- *
- * io provides a simple mechanism to write I/O servers with multiple
- * connections. Handling of connections is multiplexed, and function
- * indicate what they want written or read, and what follow-on
- * function to call on success (or failure).
+ * io - simple library for asynchronous io handling.
+ *
+ * io provides a mechanism to write I/O servers with multiple
+ * connections. Each callback indicates what I/O they plan next
+ * (eg. read, write). It is also possible to write custom I/O
+ * plans.
+ *
+ * When compiled with DEBUG, control flow is changed so that rather
+ * than returning to the main io_loop(), plans are executed sequentially
+ * providing a backtrace showing what has occurred on that connection.
+ * Which connection(s) do this depends on the user-specified io_debug
+ * function.
*
* Example:
* // Given tr A-Z a-z outputs tr a-z a-z
