"package" and "module", we only need one. Most other language only have one. The more, the more complicate.
libstd.so: What we call it? "library" "package" "crate"?? other language usually call it "library". std::io::fs: We call it "module", other language usually call it "package" or "module". So, whatever we call it, package and module, we only need ONE of them, and let another gone. 2013/12/13 Felix S.
