         This module provides a wizard to post many Journal Entries in batch. it
         uses the queue system introduced by the OpenERP Connector to handle a
         big quantity of moves in batch.
+
+        The module account_default_draft_move introdoces a workflow where the
+        Journal Entries are always entered in OpenERP in draft state, and the
+        posting happens later, for example at the end of the period. The core
+        account module provides a wizard to post all the moves in the period,
+        but that is problematic when there are many moves.
+
+        The posting of a move takes some time, and doing that synchronously,
+        in one transaction is problematic.
+
+        In this module, we leverage the power of the queue system of the
+        OpenERP Connector, that can be very well used without other concepts
+        like Backends and Bindings.
+
+        This approach provides many advantages, similar to the ones we get
+        using that connector for e-commerce:
+
+        - Asynchronous: the operation is done in background, and users can
+          continue to work.
+        - Dedicated workers: the queued jobs are performed by specific workers
+          (processes). This is good for a long task, since the main workers are
+          busy handling HTTP requests and can be killed if operations take
+          too long, for example.
+        - Multiple transactions: this is an operation that doesn't need to be
+          atomic, and if a line out of 100,000 fails, it is possible to catch
+          it, see the error message, and fix the situation. Meanwhile, all
+          other jobs can proceed.
