=head1 DESCRIPTION
-This module provides a standard way to gather metadata about a .pm file
-without executing unsafe code.
+This module provides a standard way to gather metadata about a .pm file through
+(mostly) static analysis and (some) code execution. When determining the
+version of a module, the C<$VERSION> assignment is C<eval>ed, as is traditional
+in the CPAN toolchain.
