+**Introduction**: http://blogs.technet.com/b/packagemanagement/archive/2015/04/29/introducing-packagemanagement-in-windows-10.aspx
+**From the Introduction**: PackageManagement is essentially a **Package Management Aggregator**.  It creates a unified and consistent PowerShell interface for users and provides a plug-in model at the back end that different installer technologies or package managers can plug-in as providers, using PackageManagement APIs.  Each provider further manages one or multiple package sources (repositories) where software packages are stored.
+  * **Providers** = Package Managers
+    * Like MSI
+  * **Package Sources** = Repositories

+<file>
