It would be nice if on the list of Packages that there were hyperlinks for each 
one that had a description of what the package is. I have no idea what some of 
those packages are or what they would be used for.

This will be addressed real soon, thanks to peitolm.  But if you are curious as
to the purpose of a certain package I suggest google.

for the package you're looking for.
