+@item Strict timeouts everywhere.
+@item Fully type annotated.
+@item 99% test coverage.
+@end itemize
+
+Plus all the standard features of requests:
+
+@itemize
+@item International Domains and URLs
+@item Keep-Alive & Connection Pooling
+@item Sessions with Cookie Persistence
+@item Browser-style SSL Verification
+@item Basic/Digest Authentication
+@item Elegant Key/Value Cookies
