+These libraries are organized in packages.
+There is a central index of all these packages which can
+easily be downloaded by CPM.
+The individual packages are currently not stored in a central
+server but their source can be anywhere.
+CPM organizes the automatic access to appropriate versions
+of these packages so that a user does not need to know
+about these details.
+CPM also supports //semantic versioning//, i.e., it is able to check
+whether a new minor version of a package is consistent
+(w.r.t. its API and behavior) with a previous version of
+the same package.
