+poster provides a set of classes and functions to faciliate making HTTP POST
+(or PUT) requests using the standard multipart/form-data encoding.
+
+The modules in the Python standard library don't provide a way to upload large
+files via HTTP without having to load the entire file into memory first.
+
+poster provides support for both streaming POST requests as well as
+multipart/form-data encoding of string or file parameters.
