+protobuf3 (Google's data interchange format)
+
+Protocol buffers are a flexible, efficient, automated mechanism for
+serializing structured data.
+
+This package contains protobuf API version 3.
+It support the following language implementations:
+* C++
+* Java
+* Python
+* Objective-C
+* C#
+* JavaNano
+* JavaScript
+* Ruby
+* Go
+* PHP (Alpha)
+
+The complete documentation for Protocol Buffers is available at:
+https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/
+
+NOTE:
+* This package should NOT be installed alongside with protobuf.
+ Protobuf3 introduced API incompatibility and upstream will
+ continue to support protobuf version 2.
+* Protobuf3 enforces strict UTF-8 checking.
+ Parsing will fail if a string field contains non UTF-8 data.
+* This SlackBuild installs the Python bindings by default.
