+description: This code, based on zfec by Zooko, based on code by Luigi
+ Rizzo implements an erasure code, or forward error
+ correction code. The most widely known example of an erasure
+ code is the RAID-5 algorithm which makes it so that in the
+ event of the loss of any one hard drive, the stored data can
+ be completely recovered. The algorithm in the zfec package
+ has a similar effect, but instead of recovering from the loss
+ of only a single element, it can be parameterized to choose in
+ advance the number of elements whose loss it can tolerate.
