Hi Fred,

Thank you for your first package! It is a simple one, so mostly looks
good to me. The synopsis and descr will need a little work:

If you look at other synopses in ruby.scm how would you simplify this
one? I think it can be described as "Secure authentication library for
http based on RFC 2617" so you anyone can understand what it is.

I think this can be simplified too and be done in one paragraph. If
compared with other descriptions, what do you propose?

The goal of the description is to add information to the synopsis - so
anyone who wants to know more about a package can read that. Compare
with existing package descriptions.
