Is there a "Business Administration"-like term(s) to describe how a company "packages" software for market? An example: A company wants to create/market a product to run under MS Windows. They go to Microsoft and get the specs for Windows (the developers toolkit, for example), create a product, write a user's manual, installation scripts, and shrink-wrap the stuff for customer delivery. Thanks for any suggestions. -- Marc Ries ries@venice.sedd.trw.com (ARPA) somewhere!trwind!venice!ries (UUCP) #include
