+mpi4py is constructed on top of the MPI-1/MPI-2 specification and provides an
+object oriented interface which closely follows MPI-2 C++ bindings.  It
+supports point-to-point and collective communications of any picklable Python
+object as well as optimized communications of Python objects (such as NumPy
+arrays) that expose a buffer interface.")
