If it is a parser _generator_, mention this in de short description as

Which CASCON paper? I don't think you should mention this in the
description. The description is meant for a user to decide if he wants
to install this package or not. You shouldn't make a user follow
references, that is besides the point. I also don't think that the
paragraph about the proof of concept is useful. The only useful
information is "C++". Does Kelbt indeed output C++ code?
