*
* DESCRIPTION
*
- * Implementation of the packet routines for sending and receiving
- * SILC Packets. These includes the data sending routines and data
- * reading routines, encrypting and decrypting routines, packet assembling
- * and packet parsing routines.
+ * The SILC secure binary packet protocol interface, provides interface for
+ * sending and receiving SILC packets. The interface provides a packet engine,
+ * that can be used to receive packets from packet streams, and routines
+ * for sending all kinds of SILC packets.
+ *
+ * The packet engine and packet stream are thread safe. They can be safely
+ * used in multi threaded environment.
