// Package mrpc contains types and functionality to facilitate creating RPC
// interfaces and for making calls against those same interfaces.
//
// This package contains a few fundamental types: Handler, Call, and
// Client. Together these form the components needed to implement nearly any RPC
// system.
//
// TODO document examples
// TODO document Debug?
