+=head1 NAME
+
+Bugzilla::Hook - Extendible extension hooks for Bugzilla code
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+  use Bugzilla::Hook;
+
+  Bugzilla::Hook::process("hookname");
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Bugzilla allows extension modules to drop in and add routines at 
+arbitrary points in Bugzilla code. These points are refered to as 
+hooks. When a piece of standard Bugzilla code wants to allow an extension
+to perform additional functions, it uses Bugzilla::Hook's process() 
+subroutine to invoke any extension code if installed. 
+
+=item C<process>
+
+Invoke any code hooks with a matching name from any installed extensions. 
+When this subroutine is called with hook name foo, Bugzilla will attempt 
+to invoke any source files in C<bugzilla/extension/EXTENSION_NAME/code/foo.pl>. 
+See C<customization.xml> in the Bugzilla Guide for more information on
+Bugzilla's extension mechanism.
