+soplex: Linear optimization solver using the revised simplex method
+===================================================================
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+SoPlex is an optimization package for solving linear programming
+problems (LPs) based on an advanced implementation of the primal and
+dual revised simplex algorithm. It provides special support for the
+exact solution of LPs with rational input data.
