+  # RSS::Utils is a module that holds various utility functions that are used
+  # across many parts of the rest of the RSS library. Like most modules named
+  # some variant of 'util', its methods are probably not particuarly useful
+  # to those who aren't developing the library itself.

+    # returns the CamelCase version of +name+.
+    #
+    # If the +name+ is already CamelCased, nothing happens.

+    #   require 'rss/utils'
