IMO, "package" is used in several languages, maybe it's much familiar and
friendly to rust newbies:


> ```

package newpkg; // pkgid is "newpkg", compile to dynamic library (.so)

package main; // pkgid "main" means compile to executable program (.exe)

static package newpkg; // pkgid is "newpkg", compile to static library



extern package newpkg; // or …
>
extern package newpkg = "http://github.com/liigo/rust-newpkg#newpkg:1.0";;

```


But I'm OK if "crate" is used here.
