Goals

The following are the goals of modularizing the toolkit:

  • Organize the continuous growth of the Toolkit
    • Create system with a kernel of base-level code and topic modules
      • Hierarchy of modules?
    • Kernel very rigorously supported and developed
    • Possibly two classes of modules: Core and Extra
    • Core modules also rigorously supported
    • Extra modules less so
  • Simplify usage for application developers
    • Package manager that allows user to choose exactly what functionality is desired
    • Modules exist along logical boundaries
