     Buld the Clarens and PEAC plug-ins, to use in a GRID enabled
-    analysis. The Clarens Grid-Enabled Web Services Framework is an
-    open source portal for ubiquitous access to data and computational
-    resources provided by computing grids. PEAC is an interactive
-    distributed analysis framework that uses Clarens as a glue
-    protocol to advertise and communicate amongst SAM, Global Manager
-    (GM), Local Manager (LM), DCache, and PROOF services.
-    It doesn't need Clarens to build, however if you want to use it,
-    you will require to build Clarens and PEAC on your own, it is not
-    yet in the Gentoo Portage tree. 
-    See http://clarens.sourceforge.net/ for Clarens
-    and http://physics.ucsd.edu/~schsu/project/peac.html for
-    PEAC.
