By definition, a SplitOff is a package which is built concurrently with the main package and split from it after building.

A fair number of packages use this tactic. - -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk0SAK4ACgkQB8UpO3rKjQ8vewCgmD9ItSyAztCsGiGf1kATLAOT JbIAn30Wd/iXCCDpRkYocFexB/EojC4U =XsSz -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Forrester recently released a report on the Return on Investment (ROI) of Google Apps.
