+.SH NAME
+logilab-astng \- Python Abstract Syntax Tree New Generation
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.I logilab-astng
+The aim of this module is to provide a common base representation of 
+python source code for projects such as pychecker, pyreverse, pylint.
+
+.LP
+It is governed by pylint's needs.  It extends class defined in the 
+compiler.ast [1] module with some additional methods and attributes. 
+Instance attributes are added by a builder object, which can either 
+generate extended ast by visiting an existant ast tree or by inspecting 
+living object. Methods are added by monkey patching ast classes.
+
+.LP
+Main modules are:
+.LP
+
+* nodes and scoped_nodes for more information about methods 
+and attributes added to different node classes
+
+.LP
+* the manager contains a high level object to get astng trees 
+from source files and living objects. It maintains a cache of 
+previously constructed tree for quick access
+
+.LP
+* builder contains the class responsible to build astng trees
