Version 1.107 Product Sources

1. Introduction

This document is the root of Version 1.107 of the product sources (See [RB 1999-05-20, 8] for a discussion of master sources, versions, and releases.)

This document catalogues the product sources for the Memory Pool System project.

This document will be modified as the product sources are developed.

The readership of this document is the project developers, and also anyone interested in the project.

This document is not confidential.

2. Product sources

The product sources are everything which is used to construct the product and everything which is developed as the product develops, and must therefore be branched and maintained in product versions.
