­]project-open[ is more than the sum of its parts, built of many individual packages that contribute and work together to form the system framework.  A package is a code directory tree containing all the files that collaborate with other package contents to implement their functionality.  Packages must be installed to work.  Every package is freely available (except select closed source licensed ones) to the public through [direct download] or CVS checkout.  Packages are grouped by function.
