+DESCRIPTION
+  Authors using LaTeX to typeset books with significant margin
+  material often run into the problem of long notes running off the
+  bottom of the page. A typical workaround is to insert \vshift
+  commands by hand, but this is a tedious process that is invalidated
+  when pagination changes. Another workaround is memoir's \sidebar
+  function, but this can be unsatisfying for short textual notes, and
+  standard marginpars cannot be mixed with sidebars. This package
+  implements a solution to make marginpars "just work" by keeping a
+  list of floating inserts and arranging them intelligently in the
+  output routine.
